With its lunar landscape of vast deserts, rocky canyons and weirdly shaped mountains, sweeping dunes and seascapes, a Safari in Namibia's sometimes inhospitable wilds is a mystic journey to a place of natural grandeur. With the second lowest population density in the world, Namibia protects huge tracts of wilderness. Located in south-western Africa, Namibia boasts a well-developed infrastructure, some of the best tourist facilities in Africa, and an impressive list of natural wonders. To properly appreciate this extraordinary country, one has to venture out of the cities to explore the remarkable natural landscapes. These include the impressive Fish River Canyon; the vast Etosha National Park teeming with and abundant wildlife, such as Lions, Oryx and Rhino; the hauntingly beautiful Kalahari Desert; and of course Damaraland and the Namib Desert stretching for over 2000 km along the magnificent Atlantic Coast. Namibia is an ideal destination for travellers seeking an unforgettable African experience in a uniquely beautiful, untamed wilderness.
