Namibia is vast – yet, at times, it seems as if nobody else is there. Namibia, a huge nation in southern Africa, has sweeping desert, deep canyons and 1,572km of coastline, but a tiny population to fill it all. This makes a trip to Namibia truly wild – you might not see people, but you will see long-horned oryx amid the dunes, springbok sprinting by the roadside and baboons on the kerb. Namibia is a spectacular conservation success story – it has the world's largest population of cheetahs, the largest population of black rhinos, and growing numbers of lions. While the famed pans of Etosha National Park (where you can self-drive around waterholes to spot lion, giraffe, elephant and more) are a good bet for wildlife spotting, most of the wildlife is outside of national parks in community conservancies. So successful are these conservancies that rhinos have been translocated out of the national parks and placed in the safekeepng of communities. But there’s more to Namibia than wildlife: float above the ancient Namib desert in a hot-air balloon, careen down it on a sandboard, trot out to a sundown spot on the back of a trusty steed or simply enjoy the view as you drive by.
