Why Go?
Namibia posesses some of the most stunning landscapes in Africa, and a trip through the
country is one of the great road adventures. Natural wonders such as that mighty gash in
the earth at Fish River Canyon and the wildlife utopia of Etosha National Park enthrall, but
it's the lonely desert roads, where mighty slabs of granite rise out of swirling desert sands,
that will sear themselves in your mind. It's like a coffee-table book come to life as sand
dunes in the world's oldest desert meet the crashing rollers along the wild Atlantic coast.
Among all this is a German legacy, evident in the cuisine and art nouveau architecture and
in festivals such as Windhoek's legendary Oktoberfest.
Namibia is also the headquarters of adventure activities in the region, so whether you're
a dreamer or love hearing the crunch of earth under your boots, travel in Namibia will stay
with you long after the desert vistas fade.
