Wild Namibia Desert Safari

Namibia has revolutionized wildlife management. It now has the largest cheetah population in the world, a thriving black rhino population, and a brighter future for its people. Watch this video to see how responsible travel to Namibia has helped make it possible.

Only in Namibia can you experience coastal desert, soaring dunes, and austere gorges, all while tracking some of Africa’s most diverse wildlife. Watch this video to see some of the secluded luxury safari camps and private wildlife preserves visited on our tours.

From the sun-scorched dunes of Sossusvlei to the stark beauty of the Etosha Salt Pan, a magnet for wildlife, Namibia offers some of Africa’s most striking landscapes. Join Expedition Leader Abner Simeon for a virtual safari through this vast and rugged country, where you’ll track desert-adapted rhinos, search for lions and elephants on remote reserves, and explore towering red sand dunes. Learn about our exclusive itinerary, including stays in secluded luxury camps and chartered flights to reduce travel time, and get tips on packing for Namibia’s diverse environments.

Namibia’s million-acre Palmwag Concession is home to Africa's largest population of free-roaming black rhinos. Although the species has made an inspiring comeback from the brink of extinction, they are still considered critically endangered. Expedition Leader Jimmy Limbo explains how black rhinos and other animals adapt to life in the desert as he shares his experience tracking them in the Palmwag Concession and along the Skeleton Coast. Plus, find out what organizations like Save the Rhino Trust are doing to protect these pachyderms.

Every safari-goer hopes to spot Africa's Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, rhino and buffalo). But did you know Southern Africa also offers a wealth of opportunities for birders to find equally coveted avian sightings? Expedition Leader Lorraine Doyle introduces us to some of the region's diverse birdlife, from colorful lilac-breasted rollers and malachite kingfishers to elegant grey crowned cranes and birds of prey like the African harrier-hawk. Learn about their biology, the roles they play in their ecosystems, and how you can spot them for yourself on our Southern Africa safaris.
