Observe Our Meerkats And The Desert Fauna

browse (1 / 3)

The golden-orange plains of the Namib desert stretch out as far as the eye can see. The wind shapes and shifts the highest sand dunes in the world at Soussvlei, forming a kaleidoscope of colours, dizzying heights and shifting patterns while the vacant gaze of the lone oryx and gemsbok is met by the desert traveller in the distance. Hyenas, lions, meerkats and desert animals inhabit this otherworldly, lunar landscape.

Observe our meerkats and the desert fauna – these are a portal into a world of sheer, rugged beauty filled with silence and open spaces. Explore the world of the San hunter-gatherers; their desert survival tricks and mystical religion of animal-worship that equates animals with mystical, spiritual beings with the powers to bring rain to the parched land and ward off evil. Discover an ancient landscape and see the bushman paintings – testaments to the world's oldest desert. Fly-in safaris and self-drive 4x4 holidays are ideal adventures that allow travellers to observe our meerkats and the desert fauna.

From the haunting coastline of the Skeleton Coast, littered with the bones of whales and with shipwrecks of star-crossed sailors, to the rolling dunes of the desert and the hiking and walking trails that immerse you in a lonely, desolate landscape; hot-air ballooning and sunset desert cruises – Namibia offers an unparalleled escape. See the wild horses near Garub and Aus and the ostriches against the tall sand dunes of Sossusvlei. Observe our meerkats and the desert fauna – Namibia is a land of extreme contrasts and sheer beauty.
