Reasons To
Visit Namibia

  • Big Cats & Safari Wildlife

    Etosha, Damaraland and the Caprivi Strip provide a fantastic array of wildlife. Lion, cheetah and leopard are all present in significant numbers, while desert adapted elephant and rhino are virtually endemic. To appreciate all this from your own vehicle is a bonus, but there is also first-class guiding to enjoy.

  • Deserts & Dunes

    The Namib Naukluft National Park boasts some of the most iconic desert scenery anywhere in the world. Sossusvlei is the most accessible area, where enormous sand dunes overlook the ethereal vleis below. Clamber up one of these dunes for highly photogenic scenes, the desert stretching away in endless ripples constantly reshaped by the winds.

  • Dramatic Coastline

    The Namibian coast line is desolate and beautiful in equal measure. Roaring dunes collide with the sea and whale bones and ship wrecks litter the shores. Kayaking amongst seals, catamaran cruises, day trips exploring the dune sea and scenic flights are just a few ways to explore this incredible area.

  • Freedom & Exploration

    Namibia is a vast, stunning and sparsely populated country. It is a fabulous country to explore and a self-drive holiday offers the freedom to move at your own pace but still enjoy the activities on offer at each destination.

  • Himba Culture

    A nomadic people, living in small settlements in remote northern Namibia, the Himba are one of Africa’s most interesting demographic groups. Largely unaffected by the modern world and highly photogenic in their distinctive dress, their society is based around cattle herding. An excursion to meet them feels uncommonly authentic and unforced.

  • Landscapes & Scenery

    Namibia is one of Africa’s most scenically varied countries, veering from desert, canyons and bleak coastlines to mountains, salt pans and lush waterways. With so many inspiring landscapes you must visit more than once to appreciate the sheer grandeur. Namibia is so sparsely populated that these wonderful backdrops are allowed space to realise their full cinematic potential.

Namutoni

Etosha National Park

Namutoni is based around a beautiful old fort on the eastern side of Etosha Pan.

The fort was originally built as a German police post at the turn of the century and then later used as an army base during World War I. It was converted into a rest camp in the fifties.

The rooms at Namutoni are of a good standard each with comfortable beds and en suite bathrooms. In addition to the rooms there is also a shop, restaurant, petrol station, swimming pool and campsite. Namutoni has a pretty waterhole which is frequented in the dry season by large numbers of giraffe, zebra and elephant. There is also a new viewing deck on top of the Fort Namutoni. This deck is free for overnight visitors to the camp but day visitors must pay a N$100 fee.

There are lots of game loops extending from Namutoni and some of Etosha's prettiest drives and waterholes are north of the Fort. Overall, it's a good base from which to explore the eastern end of Etosha.
