The Namib Desert (also known as the "Living Desert") is reputedly the oldest desert in the world, and has a highly developed but exceptionally sensitive ecology. Rainfall averages about 50mm per year, and in many parts only the coastal fog provides sufficient moisture for many plants and animals to survive. The Namib-Naukluft Park is one of the largest conservation areas in Africa, with a total area of approximately 50 000 square km (about five times the size of Kruger National Park, and twice the size of Etosha).
Sossusvlei is one of the most photographed landscapes in Namibia, with its huge star-shaped sand-dunes, the highest in the world, rising well over 300 m above the clay pans below. Sesriem Canyon is a deep gorge approx. 1km long, forming the gateway to the Tsauchab Valley and Sossusvlei salt pans.
The Namib Desert and Sossusvlei are among the highlights of the following tours:
 Cape to Victoria Falls |
(Cape, Namibia, Botswana, Victoria Falls). The route from Cape
Town to Victoria Falls is considered by many as the
"crème-de-le-crème" of southern African eco-safari tours.
Starting at the beautiful, lush and sophisticated metropolis of Cape Town, this
safari traverses the harsh but intriguing thirstlands of the Northern Cape and
the unforgiving Namib Desert, as well the wildlife sanctuaries of Etosha
National Park, the Okavango Delta, Caprivi floodplains, and the Chobe National
Park, ending at the Victoria Falls. |
 Namibian Wildlife |
Northern and Western Namibia is often known as the "the Land
God made in Anger"! It contains some of the starkest and harshest environments
known to man, and some of Africa's most unique wildlife sanctuaries, coupled
with a captivating beauty and a sense of solitude and reality that is rarely
experienced in today's world. |
