A tour trailer bus - overland rolling hotel, of a German tourism group Rotel, caught fire in the morning of 08 November 2019 on its way to the coastal town Swakopmund from Sossusvlei dune area.
All tourists travelling in the bus were able to escape accident unhurt but all their belongings were destroyed together with the tour vehicle.
A firefighting team was dispatched from one of the nearby farms but by the time the volunteers arrived on the scene nothing more could be done to save the rolling hotel.

The tour bus with its trailer hotel belonging to Rotel Tours caught fire on the C14 gravel road between Walvis Bay at the coast and Solitaire about 15 km away from the Kuiseb Pass.
The real cause of the fire is unknown at this stage and will be determined by an official investigation.
The rolling hotel is a custom built bus in which tourists can sleep during the night. The buses accommodate 24 - 34 tourists, a driver and a tour guide. Guests travel in the front of the vehicle during the day and move to a triple berth deck in the rear of the bus or in the trailer during the night.
