NAMIBIA TRIP REPORT AND TRAVEL ITINERARY

Here a bit from the Namibia trip report that contains a lot of travel information about destinations, weather, etc... and some silly anecdotes about our journey too.
"Throughout the night, we didn’t hear car engines nor we saw artificial lights; there were no queues, no mobile signal, no TV, no door to door salesmen... it was Paradise. Probably there was no human being within a hundred miles."
"When the gazelle was about fifty meters away from the cheetahs, she smelled the danger [...] sudden moments of action, after the quiet wait in the heat of the savannah."

NAMIBIA TRAVEL INFO

Why go? Freedom, adventure, unforgettable views, fascinating wildlife... During a trip in Namibia you will meet kind and helpful people. Namibia is a safe country, while travels in South Africa require some precautions.
When to go? For a Namibia travel itinerary, August and September are the best months: dry weather and mild climate.
How? A private vehicle, possibly a 4x4 with rooftop tents, is ideal for the incredible freedom that it offers. The more expensive, more comfortable and less exciting alternative is travelling within an organized trip.

How much? Daily life is cheap, but the trip may get expensive... we spent 1000 euros for flight and travel insurance and almost as much (each) for the jeep rental for 15 days.

Where? A Namibia travel itinerary should include the following diverse natural wonders: Fish River Canyon and Sesriem Canyon, Sossusvlei and Walvis Bay sand dunes, Damaraland wild savannah and the Epupa Falls. In the Etosha Park wildlife watching is amazing, a real life TV documentary.
Where else? You could return to Namibia and wander for weeks among canyons and deserts without getting bored. Needless to say, in South Africa there are many other amazing destinations.
