Some of the world’s highest dunes are found here. It is an unbelievable sea of sand as far as the eye can see. Colorful towering dunes with dry white pans sparsely populated with “dead†camel thorn trees. This is arguably Namibia’s most sought after destination and a definite item on any safari list.
This small coastal town is Namibia’s premier holiday destination. Equally loved by locals, especially during the festive season breaks. It offers many recreational activities, such as quad biking, horse and camel rides and dolphin cruises, mostly done from Walvis Bay. Guest can check on email, do laundry or just wander around. Most tours take a break here either from Etosha and/or Sossusvlei.
A national park, 3 times the size of Holland! Home to Africa’s big 4. Etosha is a game lover’s paradise. Best to visit during April – December. Inside the park are 4 well run camps, but the park is surrounded by more lodges and camps at the periphery of its borders, more so to the east and west.
Better known as Twyfelfontein. It is Namibia’s first World Heritage Site. Known for its ancient rock paintings of San paintings. Also home to the desert elephant. This area offers one of the most fascinating landscapes.
Home of the Ovahimba people. One of the last remaining truly African groups of people, with the San. Kaokoland consist of places such as Opuwo, Sesfontein and the Epupa Falls. Opuwo is the last place to fill up on goodies if you plan on heading deeper into the Kaokoland area. Sesfontein is a very good stop over between Opuwo and Twyfelfontein. About Epupa most people say this – “Victor Falls is great, but Epupa Falls is beautiful!â€
The Fish River Canyon is located the south of Namibia. It is the second largest canyon in the world and the largest in Africa, as well as the second most visited tourist attraction in Namibia. It features a gigantic ravine, in total about 100 miles (160 km) long, up to 27 km wide and in places almost 550 metres deep.
