Desert Safaris with a Magnificent Backdrop
Namibia is unlike any other safari destination, it is one of the driest and least populated countries on Earth, but that doesn’t mean it is sparse in terms of attractions. Spectacular landscapes of stark beauty are Namibia's defining feature. The country is named after the world's oldest desert, the Namib - a virtual sea of rolling red dunes up to 300 metres high that supports a diversity of desert-adapted plants and animals. In addition to the Namib, the country has a host of otherwordly landscapes from the world’s second-largest canyon, to its wild coastline, to lush rivers and wetlands and the endless gold-grass plains of the Kalahari. Etosha National Park is one of the world’s best wildlife-watching destinations with big cats, elephant, black rhino and plains game in abundance.
