With ochre dunes and plummeting canyons, Namibia’s sights are a feast for the senses.
Namibia is at once an old German colony and land of African traditions. The capital of Windhoek shows off the country’s German influence, quaint European buildings and modern lifestyle. Outside of the capital, the Bushmen still cook in cast iron pots, hunting and gathering as they have for thousands of years. But perhaps the most attractive features of this south African country are the soaring crags of Fish River Canyon, and the abounding wildlife of its National Park.

What people say
You'll be thankful when you get back home and for years to come that you did all you could to experience another culture while you were in the midst of it.

What people say
If you love dramatic, ever-changing landscapes, you have to go to Namibia. It's vast and fascinating, and this trip shows it off like it deserves. Rocks, wildlife, canyons, rivers, sunsets - this trip has it all. There are a lot of long drives, but they're not so bad when you're driving through such beautiful territory. I wish I could turn around and do it all over again!
Namibia travel highlights

Go on safari drive at Etosha National Park
This game park is one of the best places to spot African animals, from elegant antelope to black-faced impala, endangered black rhino and more.

Walk through a stone forest
The Petrified Forest is a one-of-a-kind geological site. A unique phenomena thousands of years ago turned these trees to stone, preserving their original colour and texture.

Enjoy the sights at Sossusvlei
This stunning salt and clay pan, another one of Namibia’s natural wonders, has deep orange dunes of spectacular shifting colours.

Classic Namibia, October 2017
Petra Robertson
This was an amazing experience, a once in a lifetime trip. Just be prepared for some very long days in a very hot bus on very bumpy, dusty roads. The experiences, culture, scenery and animal life were truly spectacular.

Peregrine may not be the cheapest tour company but do have a commitment to quality. When inevitable problems arise they do make a strong effort to ameliorate or correct them.
