Enjoy Namibia Safari in Summer Vacation

Posted: Aug 27, 2009 |Comments: 0 |

Namibia is an amazing country. It has the world’s oldest desert, bright sunshine all round the year, a coastline where you can see the Cape Fur Seal, the second largest canyon in the world, more than 60 different species of exotic birds and diverse animals from lions and elephants to hyenas and black rhinos. Namibia Safari would therefore be an ideal choice for your summer vacation. There are just two factors to be catered for besides the budget of course, your interest areas and the time available to you.

Safari Namibia could be a short 3-day affair and your trip could stretch to 20 days. A 3day Sossusvlei tour will take you past vivid landscapes as you leave Naukluft massif behind and head for the clay pan famous for its rich and diverse flora and fauna. You get to see the exquisite gorges in sandstone and the Marble Mountains during a stunning sunset.

An 18-day camping Namibia Safari will take you into the Game Reserve at the famous Kalahari Desert where you can view the famous Fish River Canyon and drive into Namib Desert. Namibia’s German history is evident as you leave Aus and reach Klein Aus Vista. If you are lucky you could see the famous Namib Desert horses in the wild. Luderitz is a coastal town next to Kolmanskop, which is now more of a ghost town. By the ninth day you are at Cape Cross seeing the beautiful Cape Fur seals in their breeding colony. The grand finale will be at the Etosha National Park where you will visit a number of waterholes and get to see zebras, lions, giraffes, elephants and maybe the near extinct Black Rhino.

For diehard fitness freaks there is the exhilarating 6 day Mountain Bike Namibia Safari during which your cycle tracks run through picturesque landscapes with a viewing opportunity of the elephant and the desert rhino as you whiz past old zinc mines, giant Acacia trees, the Ugab riverbed and extinct volcanoes. Then there are Dunes and Wildlife safaris, flying safaris and self-drive safaris. The ultimate choice is yours.
