Why Namibia?


The flora and fauna of Namibia are astounding in their variety and alterations.
In an arid climate, surrounded on two sides by desert, there are rare plant species and many examples of wildlife adaptation - like the desert elephant.

These unique spectacles along with shorelines strewn with old ship wrecks are singularly Namibian. This country and its hidden treasures are for those who appreciate an unspoiled and dramatic experience.

Accommodations:
Sophisticated and luxurious lodges and city resorts, modest yet comfortable B&B’s.

Gameviewing:
Pop-top minivans, land cruisers and open vehicles.

Getting Around:
For those who have the time to cover the vast distances and great desert expanse; the
roads are well marked and routinely maintained. Small aircraft transport between regions is recommended.

Other Attractions:
Dune boarding and sea kayaking south of Swakopmund, rhino tracking, cycling and camel treks in Damaraland. Visit the Kunene River region in the far northwest for an opportunity to interact with the nomadic Himba.
