The beautiful southern African country of Namibia gained independence in 1990 and is one of the oldest places on earth, with one of the youngest nations.
Namibia is an extraordinary place. It is magnificent, magical and mysterious, as well as being a land of two deserts. Both the Namib and the Kalahari Desert offer acres of nothing but fine golden sand, combined with an incredible coastline where the icy waters of the Atlantic meet the searing heat of the African desert.
Venture inland on Namibia holidays to discover Damaraland, with its breathtaking collection of landscapes, featuring the impressive Petrified Forest and the 1,000-year-old Welwitschia plant. Damaraland also offers unforgettable sightings of endangered desert elephant and black rhino on an immersive game drive. Whereas at Sossusvlei, one of the oldest and driest eco-systems, climbing to the top of the highest sand dunes is a must.
Alternatively, discover the famous salt pans of the Etosha National Park featuring an abundance of game, the wilderness of Kaokoveld in the far north, and the Fish River Canyon in the south – second only to the iconic Grand Canyon in size. Next, explore the Caprivi Strip; a narrow stretch of lush wetlands extending across the top of Botswana, where the idyllic Chobe and Zambezi rivers meet.
