TENTED ADVENTURES

Straddled between two deserts, the Kalahari on the East and the
Namib; from which its name is derived, on the West, Namibia
is a country characterised by magnificent scenery complimented
by a large variety and population of desert adapted wildlife.
With a population of only 1.5 million people this vast country
has to be visited to be appreciated.
Highlights of this country vary from the dunes of the Sossusvlei,
some of which are the highest accessible on earth, the fragile
and unique ecosystem of the Skeleton Coast that is home to tens
of thousands of fur seals, the desert adapted elephant and rhino
in the Damaraland, the concentrations of desert adapted wildlife
in the Etosha National Park to the strong and fascinating culture
of the Himba and Herero tribes that have survived centuries of
harsh climate and live a lifestyle of a bygone era. Journeys across
the desert are truly rewarding, as there is never an empty moment
in the beauty of the scenery.
Blessed with a small population and an abundance of open space
Namibia boasts a unique climate characterised by blue skies and
clear starry nights making it an ideal destination for astronomy.
There is a rich and colourful culture that freely blends in with
previous colonial influences on architecture, food and art all
merging to create a distinctive Namibian experience. |
