Experience
Namibia
Few countries in Africa can match Namibia's sheer natural beauty. The country's name is derived from the Namib Desert, the world's oldest desert. We believe that there are few more stirring desert realms on the planet, from the Sand Sea, a World Heritage Site, to the eerie Dead-Valley at Sossusvlei to the otherworldliness of sand dunes plunging down to the sea at Sandwich Harbour and the Skeleton Coast. Inland, running through the heart of the country, a spine of mountains creates glorious scenery – the Naukluft Mountains, the Brandberg, Spitzkoppe, Damaraland and the jaw-dropping Fish River Canyon. With rivers and wetlands in the Zambezi Region and the rolling red dunes of the Kalahari, it's difficult to think of an iconic African landscape that cannot be found in Namibia.

Namibia is one of Southern Africa's best places to observe wildlife, especially in the country's north. Etosha National Park is a must-see for wildlife enthusiasts with its lions, leopards and cheetahs, large herds of elephants, black rhinos and plains game in abundance. Damaraland is a wonderful place to see desert-adapted elephants and lions, and also happens to host Africa's largest population of free-ranging rhinos – rhino tracking is a real highlight here.
