About Namibia Travel

Namibia, also known as "Africa's harsh paradise" or "land of contrasts", is a diverse travel destination on the black continent. In contrast to the other countries in southern Africa, the distances between the individual places and sights are quite long. The many unpaved overland roads also mean that you cannot discover the country at high speed, but need to take your time.

The country is home to only around two million people. This leaves plenty of space away from civilization. Namibia consists of a mixture of untouched wilderness, people of different cultures and the many legacies of the former German colonial era, which you will encounter above all in the cities of Windhoek, Swakopmund and Lüderitz.

However, Namibia is mainly famous for its impressive landscapes and unique nature. The red dunes of Sossusvlei, the depths of the Fish River Canyon, the mighty Epupa Waterfalls, the wildlife-rich Etosha Pan, the wild coasts, the shimmering red-gold Kalahari Desert, the endless savannahs and mighty rainforests: all these highlights make Namibia a truly exceptional travel destination.

Namibia can easily be discovered by rental car on a self-drive tour, in a small group or on a privately guided tour. Fly-in safaris are very popular with travelers on a tight schedule. The choice should be based on personal preference. There are no objective reasons for or against any of the different options.

Due to the infrastructural conditions (only a few roads are paved), a Namibia vacation should be planned professionally, especially depending on the planned travel time (dry season, rainy season). A sensible balance between "seeing a lot" and "relaxing" as well as a sensible choice of route are important. After all, nobody wants to spend their entire vacation in a vehicle.

Distances must be estimated realistically. In some parts of the country, 100 km can be covered much more quickly than in others. For some stops, a minimum stay of several nights is recommended, for others one night is sufficient. Due to the limited number of accommodations, the right choice and early booking is crucial here.
