Namibia’s vast open spaces are home to a wealth of birds and animals, some
of them rare protected species, and some exquisite plant life, found nowhere
else in the world. And that’s what makes Namibia such an exciting holiday
destination, a unique wonderland. There are so many unusual things to see...

The apricot glow of the desert dunes at sunset, the magic of the constant

silvery shimmer of Etosha Pan, surreal rock formations, sunbaked plains full
of immense fossilised trees, extinct volcanoes and mountain slopes which
have been fused by some ancient cataclysm.

Sightseeing Options more
Namibia’s rich blend of cultures and traditions offer a diversity of experiences. Stay in safari lodges and see a wealth of
game in the untouched wilderness of the major wildlife sanctuary,
Etosha National Park or explore the Namib-Nauklaft
region, home to some of the world’s most unusual plant life, including the Welwitschia.

Travel through stark, desolate scenery to visit the magnificent Fish River Canyon, and the hot spring, Ai Ais. Enjoy the
surreal desolation of the incredible
Skeleton Coast Park & the magic of Luderitz, where Bartholomew Dias first set foot on
African soil. There’s also the seaside playground of Swakopmund, untamed Damaraland and Bushmen relics at
Twyfelfontein and the Waterberg Plateau. Don’t miss the unique geological curiosity of Organ Pipes and Burnt Mountain,
and enjoy great fishing and game viewing on the Caprivi Strip. More options on
