I loved Namibia! The scenery was magnificent, from the impressive Fish River Canyon to the breathtaking dunes at Sossuslvei, and the fascinating wildlife wonder of Etosha National Park.

There isn't much for the city slickers here, but that was fine with me.

colourful Namibia landscape

Even the unnamed places in between these famous landmarks provided colourful landscapes and never ending vistas of earth and sky.

sunset, Etosha

The skies were glorious in Namibia, from sunrise to sunset.

I suggest a camping holiday, that way you will never miss one of these fantastic shows. I travelled with Drifters, a South African company on a 3 week safari that began in Cape Town and headed north through Namibia then east thru Botswana and Zimbabwe. The group was small, 12 plus 2 guides. We all helped with meal preparation and clean up and were responsible for putting up and taking down our tents. It was a great trip and I highly recommend Drifters!

What a fantastic trip! Zebras are one of my favorites, too. Excellent tips, and outstanding animal pics! Love the color on those bee-eaters.
