Namibia

An unforgettable African experience, Namibia is a country of contrast. Watch the sunrise over one of the worlds oldest deserts whose “nama” name aptly means “Vast place”. Enjoy an abundance of wildlife at Etosha National Park, immerse yourself in the city culture and history of Swakopmound or soak in ocean views along the Skeleton coast. A sense of remoteness and serenity is culminated by its wide open spaces, big skies and sparsely populated regions.

Namibia is the ideal African location for an adventurous family vacation. The country is known for its safe and friendly nature and is a massive playground for outdoorsy kids. From sandboarding down dunes to nature walks and quad biking, your family is bound to have a fun filled time. Accommodation for families in Namibia is a sure win as there are plenty of self catering, camping and luxury lodge options to choose from.

The best wildlife experiences can be had during dry season between June and October, when animals can be seen congregating around watering holes or between April and May when temperatures are more moderate.

With its stark beauty, diverse landscapes and hospitable people, it is a destination sure to draw you back time and time again.
