Take a wildlife-fueled adventure through Namibia – one of the most sparsely populated countries on earth! Crossing the border from South Africa, you’ll travel along Namibia's beautiful coastline, to sand dunes, moonscapes and savanna grasslands teeming with wildlife. This is a country of contrasts and a paradise for nature lovers! Walk through the desert, savour local dishes and relax on seldom-visited beaches. Soak up African sunsets, birdwatch and go on game drives through Etosha National Park – all with a local leader who’s armed with fascinating insights.This is an overland trip. That means you’ll be travelling with a group in a purpose-built vehicle, visiting remote communities and getting the best possible views of Africa's iconic wildlife.

The driving days can be long, but it’s as much about the journey as the destination.
