Our agency creates tailor-made, unique and authentic trips, far from the classic tourist circuits. We design each itinerary according to your wishes and your budget, in order to help you discover destinations differently.

Descripción del viaje

Vast and silent, Namibia fascinates with its breathtaking landscapes: the glowing red dunes of the Namib, the jagged mountains of Damaraland, the endless plains of Etosha, the vertiginous canyons of Fish River, the Caprivi forest, Chobe National Park in Botswana and, to finish, Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe. Each horizon seems unreal, sculpted by wind and time. Here, the road itself is an adventure. On gravel tracks bordered by silence and immensity, you chart your own route. A road trip in total freedom, far from the crowds, where every detour leads to the unexpected. Namibia is also a model of sustainable tourism. Ethical safaris, eco-friendly lodges and conservation projects involving local communities create a rare balance between nature, culture and respect. Himba peoples, desert elephants, starry skies as far as the eye can see: Namibia is not visited, it is lived. It is a land of essentials, raw, beautiful and unforgettable. This tour is complementary with Botswana and Zimbabwe.
