Exquisite Safaris Namibia
Exquisite Safaris Namibia Experiences
Namibia is the soul of Africa, characterised by vast open spaces, breathtaking scenery and great contrasts -ocean, dunes, mountains and deserts. This vast desert country of rolling dunes and swirling mists stirs the spirit and moves the heart.
Namibia is so large and sparsely populated that it is possible to discover enormous open spaces without roads, towns, trees or even stones, just the lonely desert wind passing through one of the most enchanting corners of the earth.
Africa’s largest game park, the Namib-Naukluft Park, is a must see when on safari in Namibia, with its magnificent sea of rolling red dunes at Sossusvlei. Etosha National Park is one of Africa’s great parks in both size and diversity of wildlife. In the country’s far northwestern pocket is the captivating and largely unexplored Caprivi Strip.

About Namibia
No Namibian safari is complete without a visit to world renowned Sossusvlei, in the heart of the enormous, almost 50 000 km² (19 305 square mile) Namib-Naukluft Park. Surrounded by a sea of ever-changing sand dunes, Sossusvlei is a clay pan that only rarely fills with water. It is a place of awe-inspiring beauty – magnificent terracotta sand dunes that rise over 300 m (980 feet) into the vast, blue sky. Said to be among the highest dunes in the world, climbing to the top of one of these dunes is an unforgettable experience.
Highlights:
• Rare and strange desert-adapted plants, such as the welwitschia mirabilis
• Dead Vlei Pan, where ancient camel thorn trees provide striking visuals
• Black and white oryx, springbok and ostriches
• Striking sunsets or sunrises over the vase sea of dunes
• Great hiking trails
Namibia’s ghostly Skeleton Coast is evocative, atmospheric and truly unforgettable. Situated on the remote western coastline, it is named after the skeletal shipwrecks caused by rocks offshore in the thick desert fog. The rusted ship remains are often seen surrounded by swirling mists and make for moody and dramatic visuals. Ships can be found as far as 50 m (165 feet) inland, as a result of the desert creeping into the sea and reclaiming the land.
Highlights:
• A photographer’s dream destination
• Designated wilderness reserve
• The northern parts are accessible only by plane
• Cape Cross seal colony, one of the largest breeding colonies of Cape fur seals (up to 250 000 in the breeding season)
• Popular angling spot
