‍In Africa and even the world, few places have as much to offer as Namibia.

From the enormous, majestic sand dunes to rushing rivers, waterfalls, awe-inspiring canyons, and even the occasional oasis, there’s something exciting and unexpected around every corner. Whether you want an adventure of a lifetime or just to escape stress for a while, there are countless Namibia guided tours for you to choose from. Select one of the many luxury Namibia tours to experience the best of this spectacular country with a touch of class that cannot be beaten.

Go on a Desert Safari

Regardless of which Namibia private tour or luxury Namibia safari you pick, be sure it includes a desert safari. It is an experience like no other. You’ll pass towering, golden dunes that seem to go on for miles, herds of elephants roaming the sparse plains, and perhaps a lazy lion lounging in the shade. You’ll also get to meet the friendly locals in Namibia’s desert towns and see the unique architecture of these remote communities. If you’re lucky, you might even catch a glimpse of a rare desert oryx, one of the many unique animals that call Namibia home.

Hike the Skeleton Coast

The Skeleton Coast is one of Namibia’s most peaceful and magnificent places. Littered with the skeletons of shipwrecks, the coastline is a haunting reminder of the many lives lost at sea.

The peaceful Skeleton Coast is one of the few places on earth where you can almost guarantee you’ll be alone. There is something almost spiritual about seeing the sprawling orange desert meet the crystal blue Atlantic. Some visitors have even been lucky to spot the rare desert lions strolling along the beach.

Drive the Famous Dunes of Sossusvlei

The Dunes of Sossusvlei aren’t just Namibia’s most famous sand dunes; they’re some of the most famous in the world. These megalithic-type giants can be seen from space and constantly shift, creating new landscapes as time passes by. So, while hiking these sandy mountains is arduous, you will be rewarded with a stunning view of the Namib Desert.

Dune 45, one of Namibia’s most popular tourist destinations, is approximately 40 meters high and perfect for witnessing an unforgettable African sunset. This is a definite must for any luxury Namibia safari.

Walk Among the Colossal Rock Formations of the Erongo Mountains

If you’re a fan of hiking and beautiful scenery, then you’ll love the Erongo Mountains. This range of colossal rock formations is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The best way to experience these breath-taking structures is by following one of the many trails. The Otjihavera Trail, in particular, leads you past wild orchids and rare plants and gives you an up-close look at the monoliths. If you have time, you can also follow the Skeleton Gorge Trail to experience one of the most scenic waterfalls in the country. With a wide variety of hiking trails and a view that’s hard to beat, the Erongo Mountains are a must-visit for anyone who loves adventure. Look out for one of many Namibia guided tours if you want to make the most of your experience, and be sure not to miss anything.

Stargaze Under the Desert Sky

The Namib Desert is one of the world’s best places to stargaze and the perfect reprieve from the hustle and bustle of modern life. The Fish River Canyon, one of the largest canyons in the world, is just one of Namibia’s many desert landscapes that seems like it was built for stargazing. Namibia’s clear desert skies will let you see more stars than you ever thought possible. If you want to take your stargazing experience up a notch, you can spend even a night under the desert sky at a Namibia safari lodge.

Explore The Scenery in a Hot-Air Balloon

There’s simply no better way to see the Namib Desert than in a hot air balloon. Most of Namibia’s deserts are so far from civilization that you can’t really appreciate them from the ground. However, from high above the desert, you’ll be able to marvel at the desert’s beauty and truly appreciate Namibia’s vast landscapes like never before. Namibia Honeymoon Packages often include a hot air balloon experience that epitomizes romance and is the stuff that memories are made of.

If you are looking for an addition to your bucket list, Namibia is a hidden gem worthy of even the most discerning traveler’s itinerary. And if you enjoy the finer things, there are options to tailor-make your own bespoke, luxury Namibia experience. Namibia offers an experience that can’t be replicated anywhere else.
