About Namibia

Namibia is all space and light: the world's oldest desert, a fog-bound Atlantic coast and one of Africa's great game parks, linked by long, empty roads. A short flight from Victoria Falls lands you in Windhoek, the starting point for our Namibian journeys.

In the south, the red dunes of Sossusvlei rise more than 300 metres above white clay pans. On the coast, the old German town of Swakopmund offers dolphins, seals and the desert meeting the sea. In the north, Etosha's shimmering salt pan draws rhino, elephant and lion to its floodlit waterholes.

Highlights

  • Sunrise at Sossusvlei

    Climb Big Daddy or Dune 45 as the first light turns the sand from rust to apricot.

  • Deadvlei

    Camel-thorn trees, dead for 900 years, stand black against a white pan and a blue sky.

  • Walvis Bay and Sandwich Harbour

    Dolphin and seal cruises on the lagoon, then a 4×4 drive where the dunes plunge into the Atlantic.

  • Etosha's waterholes

    Black rhino, elephant and lion come to drink — some waterholes are floodlit for night viewing.

  • Kuiseb Canyon and the Namib-Naukluft

    Dramatic gorge scenery and the hidden story of desert survival.
