Namibia
Namibia
Overview
From the towering red dunes of Sossusvlei to the wildlife-rich plains of Etosha and the wild Skeleton Coast, Namibia is a land of vast horizons and dramatic desert scenery — one of Africa's most striking self-drive and fly-in safari destinations.
Best Time to Visit
May to October (the dry season) offers the best wildlife viewing at Etosha's waterholes and cooler desert temperatures for exploring the dunes. Clear skies year-round make it a superb destination for stargazing.
Wildlife
Desert-adapted elephant and lion, black rhino, oryx, springbok and giraffe roam Etosha National Park and the arid northwest, alongside prolific birdlife around the pans.
Accommodation Options
From classic Etosha rest camps to remote desert lodges in Sossusvlei and Damaraland, and tented camps along the Skeleton Coast, Namibia offers a range of styles to suit every safari.
Activities
Dune climbing at Sossusvlei, game drives at Etosha waterholes, scenic flights over the Skeleton Coast, guided desert walks, and stargazing under some of the darkest skies on Earth.
