Worth agreeing on before you meet
Respect the Wildlife
Etosha is home to critically endangered black rhinos. Never approach animals closer than the park-mandated distances, never honk your horn or rev your engine to get a reaction, and never feed wildlife. Your patience will be rewarded with natural behaviour far more impressive than a startled reaction.
Waterhole Etiquette
At floodlit waterholes, keep noise to an absolute minimum. Whisper, turn off phone sounds, and avoid flash photography. These waterholes are lifelines for animals in the dry season — your quiet respect ensures they continue to visit. Loud groups ruin the experience for everyone.
Full detail — itineraries, budgets, neighbourhoods and safety — is in the Etosha National Park travel guide.
