Traveling in ​Namibia iteneraries & maps

Picture
Our Namibia itineraries help you produce the most of their time in this massive country, whether you are interested in covering all the ground as it can be or working on a few specific areas.

Take a look at our interactive Namibia map which has a selection of our top highlights that may help you plan your southern African adventure.
Any vacation to Namibia will finally involve endless travelling through its famed empty landscapes. Fortunately, the roads are very well maintained, and those that prefer to travel independently will realise this can be one in the best destinations in Africa for self drive safaris - while there is an abundance of hire cars, well marked routes and clear road maps. Drive in safaris also assist you to make by far the most of your efforts, while discovering Namibia from your wonderfully different perspective. 
  • AfriCat, Okonjima
AfriCat began as being a rescue centre for big cats available on Namibian farmland, transporting them and releasing them in safer areas. It is now a sanctuary for carnivores which has been orphaned, or which are not fit to become returned towards the wild. Visitors can tour the education centre, track radio collared cats, and take night walks to watch out for porcupines along with strange nocturnal creatures. Income from tourism supports research and education.
  • Aus
​Though the location itself is tiny, it lies in a very key area for nature. Aus is primarily known for the wild horses which is often seen in nearby Garub, yet it's also the crosspoint of three unique habitats, which means 500 plant species are available here. These include rare succulents, which may provide stunning floral displays following rains.
  • Brandberg
The Brandberg massif includes Namibia's highest peak at 2,573m, and also the mountain attracts hikers, climbers and campers. It can also be renowned for the strange rock painting called the White Lady - now widely regarded for being a man. To make probably the most of your visit, combine it that has a trip to Windhoek's State Museum, that's an exhibition on rock art.
  • Cape Cross Seal Colony
​Up to 100,000 Cape fur seals inhabit this raucous colony year-round, and visitors can go into the reserve daily to look at - and smell - the seals, combined with the odd stalking jackal. Enormous bull seals consider to 360kg, while tiny pups are born in November-December. Cape Cross is called after the stone cross erected here from the Portuguese explorer Diego Cão in 1486. Two replicas mark the internet site today.
  • Desert elephants & rhinos
Tracking black rhino on foot is completely thrilling; the rarity of seeing them within their natural habitat causes it to become even more special and costs support rangers and research. Desert adapted elephants cover vast distances daily seeking water for their extra large feet, that assist them walk through the sand. Expert guides discover how to track them and lucky visitors can watch a herd at close range.
  • Etosha National Park
Etosha translates roughly as 'Great White Place', thanks towards the enormous Etosha Pan, a salt-crusted, dry lakebed that dominates the 22,900km2 national park. The 144 mammal species living here include lions, elephants, white and black rhinos, plus the endemic black-faced impala. During the dry season, these species jostle for space around the few remaining waterholes, making a game-viewing spectacle quite unlike some other.
  • Fish River Canyon
​Fish Fiver Canyon rips a 160km-long scar over the parched plains of Namibia's south. Over half a kilometre deep in places, by far the second largest canyon is usually trekked on foot or mule go back over four or five days, sleeping in the stars nightly. There are no facilities within the canyon, therefore it may only be hiked from May-October, when conditions are favourable.
  • Himba villages
Himba village tours expose you to this semi-nomadic community when they go about their everyday life. Paint your epidermis with ochre and ash; waft yourself using a deodorising smoke; see goats being milked; and step inside privacy of the Himba hut with an experience as far stripped away from your lifestyle as you can get. You can contribute further by ordering jewellery and also other souvenirs on the end of your respective tour.
  • Kolmanskop
Legend has it that diamonds could once be scooped up from the handful in Kolmanskop. In its 1920s heyday it boasted of ice and lemonade factories, a swimming pool area, the region's first x-ray machine as well as a theatre. Now it is one of by far the most famous - and photogenic - ghost towns. Dunes supply but covered the decaying architecture; doors hang off hinges and shuttered windows throw ripples of light along the sand.
  • Luderitz​
This fantastically remote, German-style town is just one of Namibia's most surreal spots - along with being the leaping off point for penguin and seal tours, and day trips to Kolmanskop. Kite surfing and windsurfing will also be enjoyed here, as you move the less adventurous might prefer an oyster tour or perhaps a lesson in Luderitz's past at the location's museum.
  • Quiver Tree Forest
Visit this odd-looking "forest" at dawn or dusk to find the best photography opportunities. The trees have been proved to have been named after their lightweight branches, that have been crafted into hollow arrows because of the San. The nearby Giant's Playground - a labyrinthine scattering of enormous boulders - is usually worth exploring while inside area.
  • Sossusvlei
The iconic dunes of Sossusvlei are some of the earth's most towering. Hike the crest of Dune 45 or even taller Big Daddy for any view within the vast sand sea, descend into Dead Vlei using its cracked white surface and centuries-old camelthorn tree skeletons, and allow sun, shadow and sand inspire one to get creative with the camera.
  • Swakopmund
Namibia's adventure capital would be the base for activities for instance dune boarding, skydiving, and camel riding. The town itself is smaller than average quaint, with German-inspired architecture and bakeries, excellent seafood and lively nightlife (by Namibian standards!) during local holiday periods. If you have a complimentary day, we strongly suggest taking a tour of Mondesa, the nearby township, using a local guide to get a lesson in Namibia's history and culture.
  • Twyfelfontein
This UNESCO World Heritage Site comprises one of many largest collections of rock art in southern Africa. Over 2,000 engravings and paintings cover the red cliffs and boulders. The engravings, mainly depending on animals in addition to their tracks, are believed for being depictions on the spirit world, along with being visual tools accustomed to educate young tribe members.
  • Walvis Bay
Boat tours - including seal, dolphin and whale watching - depart from Walvis Bay. Nearby Sandwich Harbour is an important birding area, with flamingos, pelicans along with waders. Kayaking, kite surfing and windsurfing may also be offered here.
  • Waterberg
This reserve protects several species, like the endangered white rhino, introduced after conservation efforts inside 1980s. Breeding colonies of countless endangered species have existed here plus a 'vulture restaurant' feeds Namibia's last remaining colony of Cape vultures. The Cheetah Conservation Fund is predicated nearby - a conservation, research and education centre where visitors can discover more about these big cats.
