A Namibia Safari Holiday will take you to a land of the starkest contrasts.
Experience the haunting silence of Sossusvlei's sand dunes and the game-packed Etosha National Park, revel in the adrenalin buzz at Swakopmund, search for desert elephants in Damaraland and interact with the astonishing Himba community in the remote Kaokoveld.
Whatever you choose, there's an eclectic range of Namibia safari holidays for all ages, tastes and budgets.
Thought Namibia was just a dusty, empty desert? Sit near a bustling waterhole in the Etosha National Park and you'll soon change your mind.
Herds of elephant, snorting rhino and fat-bellied prides of lion dominate the scene amid a mixed cast of colourful antelope. Etosha is a major player on the African safari scene but don't forget there are other great game viewing areas in Namibia as well.
For a great Namibia Safari Holiday we'd recommend the fly-in option of our Best of Namibia Wing Safari or explore all the hotspots on the rugged Spirit of the Namib. These safari holidays will give you a great overview of the wildlife of Namibia as well as its staggering natural beauty.
If you want to tailor-make your own safari holiday then we've done the ground work for you - check out our Namibia Travel top experiences and our recommended itineraries - or simply contact us and let us do the work.
Safe and friendly, Namibia is an ideal Safari Holiday destination for an adventurous self-drive tour.
It's far easier than you think: the roads are good, well signposted and there's little traffic. You dictate the pace on tours such as the Best of Namibia Self-Drive or the Classic Namibia Self-Drive and their great itineraries mean you won't miss out on anything.
It's also a perfect destination for families: a Namibia family holiday combines big game, big thrills and big scenery with plenty to do for all ages - and its dreamy scenery, remote locations and exclusive luxury lodges make it a shoo-in for a romantic Namibia honeymoon.
We recommend a Namibia Safari Holiday between May and November to avoid the hot rainy season but our favourite months are March and April when the weather is pleasant, the bush still green and the rains are ending.
Remember that the dry winter nights between June and August can be surprisingly cold whereas the pre-rainy season months of October and November can be blisteringly hot - read more about the best time to go on your Namibia Safari Holiday here.
That's not to say it's not worth going in the wetter summer months (Namibia is after all pretty dry no matter when you visit) - the life-giving rains transform the semi-arid savannah into a tapestry of green between December and April, the bird watching is fantastic and many animals give birth at this time - good news for you, good news for predators.
"Namibia is a land of deserts and diamonds, with many stories associated with the gems. Leigh Kemp spent six months on the Namibia's Skeleton Coast studying birds and searching for ghosts. He heard stories and saw wild horses but the ghosts kept away....." - Leigh Kemp, Ghost Towns and Shipwrecks of Namibia, July 2007.
