Have a read through to get a real sense of the kind of experience that you may have on a tour to Namibia. After reading this, you’ll have everything you need to book a trip to this kickass country.
When people ask me about destinations, favourites, I hesitate. Sure, sometimes I’ll mention a few locations and one spot I’ll say is “Africa,” and specifically Namibia.
It’s a challenge to explain Namibia in words, and probably easier in photographs.
If you’re planning on travelling in Africa but have no idea where to go first, head to Namibia. This country is double the size of Germany, bigger than Texas and half the size of Alaska.
I explored Namibia in June of 2016. My tour included a walk on the Tok Tokkie Trail through the NamibRand Nature Reserve. I slept under the beautiful desert sky. Later I visited a local Himba Village and got to know the tribe people. My time included some wonderful wildlife watching with lesser flamingos, lions, giraffes, guineafowl, cheetahs, warthogs, zebras and more!
My trip got down in Namibia’s capital, Windhoek, and took me on a cross-country tour. Each morning, I was up and about before sunrise, mostly to spot the animals when they are at the most vigorous and to see the landscape at its most outstanding, but also to keep away from travelling in the heat of the day.
THE COASTAL DIVERSITY
If there is something truly unique about Namibia’s Sea Line, it is the huge range of activities available on hand. From just comforting at the various peaceful beaches along the western coast to driving a 4×4 through the sand dunes, there are a million choices for you to select from.
If like me you love animals, then visit Walvis Bay where you can discover a huge seal colony. If you are more of an urbanite, then check out Swakopmund where you can relax at delightful cafes and shop at local boutiques. If you like to walk “off-the-beaten-path,” then the Skeleton Coast is for you, where you can find more than a thousand kilometers of almost nothing but anchored boats in the sand.
