is a unique safari camp for individualists, situated right on the banks of the Kunene river at the end of the Marienfluss valley. It can be reached only by 4x4 vehicle within a day's drive from either Opuwo or Sesfontein. It is the only camp in that region.

The houses are built from river stones and covered with thatched roofs. Peacefully secluded, they stand under big Ana trees. A unique atmosphere is created by the subtle background rush of the river, the recurrent clacking of cattle and goat hooves on the pebble stones and the warbling of the mourning dove in the trees.

The camp is mainly powered by solar energy. Houses are designed to be comfortable and functional. Each of the four huts is equipped with its own water fountain and two beds, which allows for a maximum of eight guests. Two separate showers and two toilets warrant the necessary privacy.

Ideally, a visiting group consists of four people. Regardless of your number, however, you will always enjoy the privilege of staying exclusively at Camp Syncro and receive individual attention. Unless arrangements have been made accordingly, you will not meet other guests at the camp during your stay.

Enjoy the solitude and timeless beauty of a magnificent landscape, the daily activities of the Ovahimba tribe, life in and along the river, magic circles and stary nights...

It is advisable to spend at least two, better three nights at the camp in order to fully benefit from the various aspects of our daily programmes.

Your host, Koos Verwey, has been living in the Marienfluss for the past eight years and thus gained intimate and extensive knowledge of the area and its inhabitants. You will be able to take advantage of his in-depth experience when meeting with the Ovahimba, driving or strolling through the sidevalleys of the Marienfluss or taking a bath in a natural whirlpool next to the rapids.


In the last few years Camp Syncro has become a popular stop-over for self-drive visitors. The camp can also be the destination of a 3-day fly-in safari or point of departure for a Kaokohimba Safari.

Because of limited space prior booking is essential!

Contrary to common practice at the beginning of a new year, we have decided to drastically reduce our price for accommodation. Whether arriving by plane or by car, this is our offer: 3-day stay at Camp Syncro: N$ 3.300,00 per person! Drinks and courtesy gifts for the Ovahimba visits are excluded, prior booking is essential.
