natural wonders, cultures and best game viewing.

Namibia means ‘open plains’ in the ancient Hottentot

language. Defined by endless sunshine, scenic beauty and
unusual contrasting topography, Namibia is sandwiched between two deserts - the Namib Desert, said
to be the oldest in the world on its western coastline and the Kalahari Desert in the eastern interior.
Namibia features the great Etosha National Park, boasting the country's largest concentration of
wildlife. The world's highest dunes are found in haunting scenery inspiring sombre reflection.
