About This Cruise
The 19 Night West Africa Featuring Namibia & Ghana is a 19-night one-way itinerary aboard Silversea Silver Dawn. You board in Luderitz and disembark in Dakar, calling at 8 ports across 6 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in Namibia (Luderitz, Walvis Bay), Angola (Luanda), Ghana (Tema, Takoradi), Ivory Coast (Abidjan), Gambia (Banjul) and Senegal (Dakar).
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Luderitz and home from Dakar, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 12 days at sea, keeping daylight hours for the ports. Sailing dates, cabin availability and fares vary by season — use Check Dates & Prices for live pricing, or call our team to talk through the options.
