Namibia


Rugged. Endless. Otherworldly.

With its ancient landscapes and a pervasive sense of peace, Namibia is one of the most enticingly empty countries on the planet – and it’s absolutely wonderful.

From mysterious coastlines to apricot dunes and salt-covered national parks, this is a place that’s all about scenery. Yes, there is wildlife to be spotted, and tracking desert-adapted elephants and rhino is an unforgettable experience, but most people visit for the views, the open space, and the feeling of being one, teeny tiny person in one epic landscape.

Plan Your Trip

Where to go in Namibia:


NamibRand Nature Reserve
Sossusvlei
Etosha National Park
Windhoek
NamibRand Nature Reserve
A place of calm, quiet solitude where the landscape does the talking and you’ll emerge a completely different person.
More
NamibRand Nature Reserve, Namibia

The orange-hued landscapes of the NamibRand invite peace, tranquillity and the chance to truly escape from the hustle and bustle of our modern lives. Spending time in this ancient desert provides space for your imagination to fly and as you horse-ride or e-bike across the dunes, uncover the secrets of the land with the Bushmen, and watch the sun paint the sky a thousand different colours at sunset, you’ll wonder why you should ever leave…

Sossusvlei
A place of great, red sand dunes, some the size of the Empire State Building, that sprawl for as far as the eye can see.
More
Sossusvlei, Namibia

Home to some of the largest dunes in the world, Sossusvlei is captivating, thrilling and supremely special. At heights of over 300-metres, the dunes stand like sandy sentinels and hiking to the top of one is a breath-taking (literally) experience. Explore by 4x4 and head to Deadvlei, an otherworldly clay pan where frozen camel thorns contrast against the white sand, to fill your camera roll to the brim.

Etosha National Park
Namibia’s wildlife hotspot, where elephants amble across shimmering salt flats and rhino congregate at the water holes.
More
Etosha National Park, Namibia

Namibia isn’t the first choice for those looking for a quintessential safari experience, but if you do wish to wildlife-watch, Etosha is top of the list. Experiences are intimate and unique, from tracking endangered rhino on foot and watching the elephants ‘bathe’ in the salt of the pans, and there’s a variety of exclusive accommodation to enjoy too.

Windhoek
Settle into a Namibian adventure - or stop for a mid road-trip restaurant-break - in the European-inspired capital city
More
Windhoek, Namibia

Namibia’s capital city, Windhoek is modern and handsome and there’s plenty to keep you occupied on a stopover. On a daytime wander, you’ll spot pretty German spires and seemingly misplaced churches – there’s even one in the middle of a roundabout – as well as markets, a smattering of modern high-rises and plenty of hotels and guest houses. In the evening, enjoy a typical feast of grilled meat and good beer.

A VAST Experience


From floating across the lunar landscapes in a hot air balloon to tracking desert-adapted elephants on foot, horse riding, e-biking and gazing at crystal-bright starry skies, emptiness certainly doesn’t translate to “nothing to do” in Namibia. But remember: a trip here is all about giving the landscape time to unfold and reveal itself. This is desert time, after all.

What you might know....

The entire country of Namibia is the size of Texas but is one of the most sparsely-populated in the world.

What you might not know....

Wildlife is not the star of the show, but there are treasures to be found: desert-adapted elephants digging for water in dry river beds; solitary oryx; majestic giraffe; and inspiring populations of black rhino.
