Namibia is a vast country of truly epic landscapes. From the tropical wetlands of the Caprivi Strip to the endless sands of the Namib and Kalahari deserts, it's a country that's teeming with wildlife, but has very few people.

In the wide expanses of this fascinating country, you'll find the Etosha National Park. It's home to cheetahs, elephants, huge flocks of ostriches, springbok and the rare black rhino. Namibia is the homeland of the indigenous Himba people, who are known across the world for their colourful garb, distinctive hairstyles and ancient way of life. Towns and cities are small and human scale. The capital city of Windhoek can easily be explored on foot, and is filled with lively nightlife, great places to eat and fascinating British colonial architecture. The German-speaking second city of Swakopmund shimmers like a mirage in the desert. Palm-fringed beaches and gorgeous buildings make this a popular place to visit.
