Why Visit Namibia?

Namibia is a country that captivates the senses with its dramatic landscapes and diverse wildlife. Here’s why Namibia should be on your travel bucket list:

Spectacular Landscapes: From the towering sand dunes of Sossusvlei to the otherworldly landscapes of the Skeleton Coast, Namibia's scenery is unparalleled. The country’s vast deserts, rugged mountains, and scenic coastlines provide endless opportunities for exploration and photography.

Rich Wildlife: Namibia is home to a wide variety of wildlife, including the iconic Big Five. Etosha National Park is one of Africa’s premier wildlife destinations, offering excellent game viewing and birdwatching opportunities.

Adventure Activities: For thrill-seekers, Namibia offers a range of adventure activities, from dune bashing and quad biking in the Namib Desert to hot air ballooning over the stunning landscapes.

Stargazing: With some of the darkest skies in the world, Namibia is a paradise for stargazers. The NamibRand Nature Reserve and other remote areas offer unparalleled views of the night sky.

Top Destinations in Namibia

Sossusvlei: Located in the heart of the Namib Desert, Sossusvlei is famous for its towering red sand dunes, some of the highest in the world. Climb Dune 45 for a spectacular sunrise view or explore the eerie beauty of Deadvlei.

Etosha National Park: One of Africa’s greatest wildlife parks, Etosha is home to a vast salt pan and an abundance of wildlife. The park’s waterholes attract a variety of animals, including elephants, lions, and rhinos, making it a prime spot for game viewing.

Skeleton Coast: Known for its shipwrecks and foggy coastline, the Skeleton Coast is a place of haunting beauty. Explore the desolate beaches, seal colonies, and the remnants of shipwrecks that dot the shore.

Swakopmund: This coastal town offers a unique blend of German colonial architecture and adventure activities. Enjoy sandboarding, quad biking, and dolphin cruises, or simply relax and soak in the town’s charming atmosphere.

Fish River Canyon: The second largest canyon in the world, Fish River Canyon offers breathtaking views and excellent hiking opportunities. The Fish River Canyon Trail is one of the most challenging and rewarding hikes in Southern Africa.

Damaraland: Known for its rugged beauty and ancient rock art, Damaraland is a haven for adventure and culture enthusiasts. Visit the famous rock engravings at Twyfelfontein and spot desert-adapted elephants and rhinos.

Cultural Highlights

Namibia’s cultural heritage is as rich and diverse as its landscapes. Engage with the Himba people, known for their distinctive ochre-covered skin and traditional attire. Visit local markets to purchase handcrafted goods and learn about the traditional lifestyles of the Herero and San people. Namibia’s cultural festivals, such as the Windhoek Carnival and the Mariental Agricultural Show, provide vibrant insights into the country’s traditions and celebrations.

Travel Tips

Best Time to Visit: The dry season (May to October) is the best time for wildlife viewing in Namibia. The cooler months of May to September are ideal for visiting the desert regions, while the rainy season (November to April) brings lush landscapes and fewer tourists.

Health and Safety: Namibia is a safe travel destination, but it is advisable to take malaria prophylaxis if you plan to visit northern regions. Ensure all routine vaccinations are up to date and drink bottled or purified water.

Travel Requirements: Visitors typically require a visa to enter Namibia, which can be obtained online or on arrival. Check the latest visa requirements and ensure your passport is valid for at least six months from your date of entry.

I think, they were quite prompt in getting back whenever I had questions. They were comprehensive in telling us about vaccines, packing and general info. My contact Megan was easy and pleasant to speak to.

They helped support us through every transfer so that we did not have to navigate that on our own. In particular - there had been terrible floods in and around Nairobi May/June 2024 and this affected a ton of details for part of our trip. They handled all of that to create a trip that we will remember for the rest of our lives

I cannot fault the service of Roaming Africa. We have never been to Africa before and we’ were apprehensive about flying into Jo’Burg but were met by representatives and directed to our hotel. This trend was the norm for our whole trip.
Kaylee

This was my first time using a travel experience expert and they made our dreams come true. I cannot suggest them highly enough, especially for people who have no experience traveling to Africa and are overwhelmed with suggestions and options like I was. The process in selecting what was important in our travels and the experiences we were looking for was easy and straightforward. Meg then walked us through our options and what fit our budget, and then Lauren handled our travel preparation and updates. The Roaming Africa team was so helpful in answering our all question, providing information for all the activities, and making sure we felt confident in our schedule. This trip was a once in a lifetime experience that we will never forget and we absolutely recommend Roaming Africa for all our friends and family.
