An adventure in Namibia can feel like you’re exploring one of the furthest flung corners of the planet – so it’s the perfect place to get truly off the beaten track and immerse yourself in African culture.

Not only is it a wildlife haven for lions, zebras, giraffes, cheetahs, elephants and countless other creatures that roam the vast plains of the Kalahari or Etosha National Park, but it’s also one of the most strikingly beautiful countries on Earth.

Haunting visions of skeletal shipwrecks along stretches of abandoned Atlantic coastline conjure up an otherworldly feel, whilst a jagged spine of mountains leads to lush grass and wetlands that teem with life.

Throw in the wise, warm locals, an encounter with whom can outshine even Namibia’s jaw-dropping landscapes, and you’re left with a country that will have dreaming of a return from the moment you land back home.
