Namibia

  • Dear Mary, we wanted to write you a note to say a huge thank you for all of your help planning and organising our honeymoon. We had the most amazing time. It was absolutely perfect and everything we dreamed it would be and more. Each of the properties we visited were perfect and you had clearly listened to exactly what we wanted by keeping them all small and personal. The game viewing at Etosha was second to none and being able to self drive around the park gave it an exclusive feel and we had some experiences we will never forget. We didn’t think it was possible for a herd of 23 Elephants to creep up without us realising whilst we were busy watching a leopard at a waterhole without another person or car in sight! This email would not be complete without a mention about the wild camping. This for us was the best three days of the entire trip. Being out in such deserted wildnerness was an unbelievable experience and one which is very difficult to describe to people who have not seen it. Our guide, Eric, was first class and ensured our experience was as good as it was. Simply put, a trip to Namibia without visiting this region in this way would be incomplete. There is one last thing…. when can we go again?!

Wildlife regions and attractions in Namibia

Namibia is a vast country stretching from the Kunene River in the north to the Orange River in the south, a distance of some 1500 kms. It is dominated by central highlands which split the Atlantic coastal belt from the arid Kalahari basin to the east. Unless you have plenty of time on your hands, it is a mistake to try and do too much as the country is simply too big. However, if you’re looking for incredible desert scenery and ‘extreme’ wilderness, Namibia is certainly the country to go to.
