One of the oldest places on Earth, Namibia is a magical and magnificent destination which boasts a seemingly endless expanse and pure, untouched wilderness.
Perhaps best known for the iconic sand dunes of Sossusvlei and its' haunting Skeleton Coast, the country is also home to an array of high-octane activities and superb experiences, from visiting the world's second largest canyon or meeting the desert Himba people, to exploring the Zambezi Region's striking floodplains.
