“Important changes to the shuttle service as of 15 Oct 2024! According to the news released by NWR on 14/10/2024 the 4x4 shuttle will now opperate from Sesriem Campsite instead of the 2x4 parking place, as we still found it a few days ago. https://www.nwr.com.na/nwr-announcement-on-shuttle-service-update-in-the-sossusvlei-area/” - Joachim Rahls, 2024/10/18
