About Namibia

Sweeping sand dunes set ablaze with fiery sunsets and endless savannah plains, Namibia is beyond the imagination. Its varied landscapes are home to rugged mountains, tranquil waterways and the world's oldest desert. In one of the planet’s least densely populated countries, the Big Five have miles of open space to roam.

Our Travellers Guide

The historical town of Swakopmund, surrounded by desert and sea, is Namibia's main holiday resort. From the nearby coastal town of Walvis Bay, marine cruises offer sightings of dolphins, seals and turtles.

Bird watching is one of the country's biggest attractions, with a wealth of species to spot. The National West Coast Recreation Area has dunes perfect for sandboarding and sand-skiing and mountaineering is popular in the Central Plateau.

Namibia's German settlers influenced a love for all things culinary. The classic safari meal is Braai, meaning barbecue, accompanied with a locally brewed beer; tombo.

The Windhoek Street Market is great for browsing. Take home hand carved woodwork, jewellery, rugs and locally produced leather. Good buys include diamonds and semi-precious stones, including tanzanite, and liqueur chocolates.

Aside from game reserves and desert exploring, Namibia has many hidden secrets. Explore the historic buildings of the capital city, Windhoek. See the Bavarian spires and Germanic architecture at Swakopmund. Discover dinosaur tracks, varied plant life, black and white rhino, buffalo, giraffes, roan and sable at Waterberg Plateau Park.
