Never heard of Rehoboth, Namibia? To be fair, neither had I until I saw it mentioned on a travel itinerary. Rehoboth might not have the instant name recognition of Sossusvlei, Swakopmund or Etosha, but that doesn’t mean it’s short on stories. Sitting about 90 km south of Windhoek, this small Namibian town has a fascinating…
As one of the world’s most exciting places to travel, Namibia has earned a reputation for its stunning attractions, its numerous adventure activities, and its ability to give travellers a couple of options for how they can see the country. It is one of only a few countries where both fly-in and self-drive experiences can…
There’s nothing like travel to build an appetite. When you are on the road, exploring the best of Namibia, you are bound to find yourself visiting a handful of small coastal towns. For those who love fresh seafood, few pleasures compare to settling into one of the region’s finest restaurants or cafés and tucking into…

It was probably on a “top ten Namibia” list, buried somewhere between Sossusvlei and the Spitzkoppe. You read the description, glanced at that typical photo of the Namib Desert…
Roughly a kilometre before you reach Cape Cross Seal Reserve, you’ll want to put your windows up, and someone in the vehicle is guaranteed to say something that makes everyone laugh. You won’t see the colony yet; you won’t even hear it properly, but you can smell it, carried on the cold Atlantic wind in…
I took the road out of Swakopmund, after a few days spent exploring this fascinating small town, and took the road inland, away from the cold Atlantic and the salt-hazed coastline. I drove for about twenty minutes before the town behind me disappeared entirely. The sight that started to appear on the horizon is a…
Somewhere on the gravel road between Khorixas and the Skeleton Coast, I noticed the atmosphere and the landscape starting to change. The light became flat and white. The air began to carry that faint smell of dust and dry grass. And then, without ceremony, a small sign appeared at the roadside, announcing that I was…
