What makes Namibia so unique ...

When you decide to travel Namibia, one landmark you must tick off on your to-do list should be the desolate Fish River Canyon in the south, which is second only to the Grand Canyon in size and grandeur. From there it’s a short hop to Lüderitz, where the ghost town of Kolmanskop is a huge source of fascination to visitors. It boomed during the gold rush, but today is partially reclaimed by the surrounding desert.

Any tour in Namibia will also not be complete without conquering the towering sand dunes at Sossusvlei, which are utterly mesmerizing. Those who explore them soon discover that deserts are anything but lifeless. The dead pan here is a vast expanse of bleached and cracked mud, dotted by the skeletons of ancient thorn trees, with dramatic crimson dunes as a backdrop - a photographer’s paradise!

Swakopmund is a charming, very German coastal town in the midst of the desert and dunes. It’s also Namibia’s adventure hub. Take a dolphin cruise from nearby Walvis Bay and you’ll have seals trying to clamber on board your boat for a free ride! Quad bike or sand board over the awesome dunes, then feast on oysters and champagne as the dying sun sets on the sea of sand aflame.

The Cape fur seal colony at Cape Cross is another stop available to visitors choosing one of our fantastic Namibia packages, and is just a few hours north of Swakopmund. Further inland is the untamed magic of Damaraland, with its Bushman relics at Twyfelfontein, Petrified Forest, strange rock formations that resemble organ pipes, and a good chance of seeing desert-adapted elephant and rhino.

For surreal desolation, the Skeleton Coast is hard to beat. Imagine a deserted coastline, littered with huge, rusting shipwrecks, and surrounded entirely by endless vistas of sea and sand. The Etosha National Park is an oasis in the middle of a semi-desert, providing one of the most extraordinary game viewing experiences in the region.

In contrast, the Caprivi Strip is a lush network of rivers, forests, swamps and waterways. This fascinating and unique country is full of wide horizons, endless stretches of golden desert dunes and unusual rocky plains. Its vast open spaces are home to a wealth of birds and animals, some rare protected species, and some exquisite plant life, found nowhere else in the world! So book the perfect tour in Namibia now with Thompsons Africa.
