Namibia - exotic dreamland in the south west of Africa

Unique desert landscape in Namibia

Be inspired by the vastness of the Namib Desert and explore the hospitality of the locals.

Namibia is an exotic dreamland in the south west of the „black continent“. Characterised by a mixture of many language groups and sometimes even by German-colonial flair, the country is ideal for nature explorers and active holidays. Namibia fascinates by its unique desert landscapes, diverse wildlife, romantic coasts, deep canyons and rough mountain ranges.

The ancient inhabitants called it “the big emptiness” and the distant, endless horizons of Namibia exert their own magic on the soul and guarantee recreation and adventure.

Namibia is a paradise for photographers and nature lovers. Common experiences,  for example the amazing African sunsets, clear unpolluted air, an unforgettable night sky displaying the Southern Cross,  leave deep impressions with all visitors and invite to return.
