Namibia
Must See Attractions
Namibia affords you the opportunity to see animals gathering round waterholes in the arid Etosha National Park, view the Fish River Canyon, or marvel at the wind-sculpted sand dunes of the Namib, the oldest desert in the world.
Etosha Pan
Set in the heart of the Etosha National Park, this shallow depression is about the size of Holland. Formerly an inland sea, the pan still attracts large wildlife such as elephants and lions because of the waterholes and springs, despite the environment.
This huge clay pan is perhaps the main reason Namibia has such a draw to its surreal environment.
Sossusvlei
The dramatic landscapes in this region are home to the side-winding snake, found amongst the ever-changing sand dunes - which at 300 metres tall are the largest in the world.
Fish River Canyon
One of nature’s largest creations, the 160km long canyon is almost 500 million years old. Formed by the collapse of the valley bottom and water erosion, the canyon can get as deep as 550 metres and is matched only by the Grand Canyon in America.
Caprivi Strip
The Caprivi Strip is the narrow protrusion of Namibian land that extends eastwards for about 280 miles, between Botswana to the south, Angola and Zambia to the north, and the Okavango Region to the west. In contrast to much of Namibia, The Caprivi Strip stretches as far as the Zambezi river in the east and so contains wetland areas rich in wildlife.
