Ref: FAN
Climb the highest sand dunes in the world Fantastic wildlife viewing
at Etosha National Park Exciting optional activities at Swakopmund
Spectacular desert scenery Full service camping - no need to lift
a finger
Namibia is one of the most spectacular countries on the African
continent. From the oldest desert with the highest sand dunes in
the world to rich savanna grasslands, from shipwrecked beaches to
sheltered lagoons, from Damara and Herero tribes to ancient rock
paintings, Namibia has it all. If this wasn't enough, it also hasone
of the best game reserves in Africa, the magnificent Etosha National
Park. As well as an abundance of large mammals, such as giraffe,
rhino, elephant and lion, this area boasts more than 630 bird species.
It is fascinating to see how animal, plant and indeed human populations
have adapted to survive in this arid yet beautiful country.
