Overview

Discover the hidden treasures Namibia

Immediate departure for sublime Namibia and the infinity of its vast, unspoilt natural spaces with their exuberant and unusual wildlife.

From the mythical Etosha Game Reserve and its gigantic dry salt lake, you'll reach the arid, orange-colored lands and rocks of Damaraland for an introduction to the culture of the Himba people and the discovery of the exceptional rock engravings of Twyfelfontein.

Then, where the rollers of the Atlantic Ocean meet the flamboyant sand waves of the Namib and its colossal giant dunes, a stopover in the seaside resort of Swakopmund will take you on a cruise on the lagoon of the former British enclave of Walvis Bay, meeting place of pink flamingos, pelicans and sea lions....

A journey in cinemascope!
