Between Kalahari and the South Atlantic, Namibia is a “ground promised” with the quasi unlimited potential

Excursions in the bush, coasts tormented, great lunar spaces, desert of Namib, cave paintings, strange fauna and flora… In which other country in the world could you contemplate flamingos flying over the desert? Strong of a spectacular natural inheritance, Namibia shelters an impressive cultural mosaic: Hereros, Khoi-Khoi, San, Kavango, Ovambos, Afrikaners, Germans, Asiatiques… cohabit on its territory.

• When to leave?

Namibia profits from three hundred days a minimal annual sunning. In winter, during the dry season (from May to October), more favourable with discovered fauna, wait you at clear days, hot and shone upon and at nights (very) cold. There are two rainy seasons: “small rains” (from October at December) and the great rainy season (from January to April), which is characterized by short downpours and storms which purify the atmosphere and sweep dust.

In January, the temperatures can climb until 40°C with Windhoek, the capital; from December to March, the heat which falls down on the parks of Namib-Naukluft and Etosha is hard to bear. If you flee crowd, avoid the periods covering mid-April in mid-May and mid-July in mid-September, corresponding to the school holidays in Namibia and in the close countries.

• Which budget?

With a favorable rate of exchange, Namibia remains a relatively cheap destination. If you camp or place in the inns of youth, if you make your own meal and you move in the local minibus, count a minimum of 15 euros per day. This type of budget will restrict your possibilities of touring unfortunately.

A budget of average category (cheap hotels, public transport, a meal per day at the restaurant) will range between 45 and 80 euros. In the higher category (top-of-the-range hotels, restaurants, circuits organized in 4 X 4…), count a minimum of 280 euros per day and anybody.

• Which activities?

The excursion is authorized in bush in certain national parks not sheltering dangerous animals; others propose excursions framed by rangers. The majority of the safaris are devoted to discovered fauna; you will on the spot find a great diversity of circuits at accessible prices. Rafts and canoes will make you discover extraordinary landscapes: the Orange river runs through desert zones all along the border with South Africa, and to kill the Kunene savage, who traces the border between Namibia and Angola, will give the opportunity to you to cross differently inaccessible territories.
