One of the world’s last true expanses of wilderness, Namibia is home to the highest sand dunes and the oldest desert, and it’s the only place you might catch a glimpse of the rare black rhino or of desert-dwelling elephants. With a wealth of animals and birds to get psyched up about, this diverse landscape is perfect for the environmentally conscious traveler with a sense of adventure. Footprint’s fully revised 5th edition helps you stay ahead of the game in Namibia’s national parks and provides thorough listings on where to sleep and eat, and how to get around.
