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…
The Sossusvlei area of Namibia is easily one of the most beautiful places in all of Africa, and one of the best ways to explore the region is to book a guided Sossusvlei tour. But before you click on a book now button, read this guide that covers everything from where to find it on…
There are mountains that you point out when you are driving past, and then there are mountains that stop you mid-sentence. Spitzkoppe, Namibia, is one of those mountains that doesn’t just stop you from saying whatever it was that you had in mind; it also forces you to stop your car so that you can…
There is arguably no better place in Africa for a road trip than Namibia. This fascinating country, while marketed as a rough and remote destination, is a lot easier to drive through than you think. The roads stretch out endlessly ahead, the sky fills the entire windscreen, and the landscape, depending on the direction you’re…

The landscapes are boundless and endlessly beautiful, the lodges are extraordinary, and the last thing you want is to be stranded at a remote fuel station with a card that will not connect. Namibia is a forward-thinking nation. It has a well-established infrastructure and all of the practical amenities that you could possibly need to…
Few places in Africa have a simple, straightforward history. Much like the rest of Africa, Namibia has a history before colonisation and a history after. For many years, outsiders mistakenly believed that Namibia history started with the colonists and that it was a nation with little knowledge of its precolonial past simply because much of…
Look at any travel article about planning a trip in Sub-Saharan Africa, and malaria is a word that will often come up.
