Have you ever traveled somewhere that made you feel like you were in a scene from Jurassic Park? Where was that? Jane Goodall once said, “However much you know giraffes, to see one in the wild for the first time feels prehistoric.” And she is spot on. The African giraffe is a biological anomaly. They only have to drink every couple of days, their hearts are two feet long and weigh up to 25lbs and they have the same number of neck vertebrae as a human spine! Don’t be too charmed by these gentle giants, they can run up to 35 mph if they’re feeling threatened and a swift kick can be absolutely deadly if you get too close!

The African continent is home to 2477 species of bird, 57% of them are endemic (only found) in Africa. Did you know that a flock of flamingos is called a ‘flamboyance’? The lesser and greater flamingos of Walvis bay arrive in droves after a 300-mile migration in search of algae and crustaceans and they’re quite the ‘clean up crew’. When all is said and done, this flock will have consumed some 180 tonnes of diatoms and algae each day. The deep pink color in the feathers comes from the food they eat, and it takes lesser (younger flamingos) up to three years to get their coloring. Fun facts: Flamingoes can be up to 5 feet tall yet only weigh 8lbs! Call now (470-253-8209) or DM us now to start your planning

At the end of a long safari day, do you like to unwind in the pool solo, or curl up fireside with your fellow travelers? Namibia is roughly the size of the state of California, yet it is the second least densely populated nation in the world. If you’ve been craving an adventurous, nature-rich, breathtaking African experience that doesn’t involve crowded safari trucks and bustling African city capitals, Namibia is the perfect destination for you. Luxury lodges across Namibia keep this in mind, providing guests with ample space and inspiring architecture to perpetuate that feeling of remote luxury.

Do you know how much sunlight Namibia gets in a year? Naturally, being one of Africa’s driest nations, Namibia sees an abundance of sunshine, but you also might be interested to know that it also sees quite a bit of daylight. With an average of 3605 hours per year, over 80% of Namibia’s time is spent in daylight hours. That means you have plenty of time to experience safaris, go on hikes, and tick off just about everything on your African bucket list. Call now (470-253-8209) or DM us now to start your planning

Look closely, can you spot the pride of desert lions? What about that small herd of desert elephants? You may have to grab those binoculars beside you because those are just a few of the animals you’ll find roaming around the Kaokoveld region. Kaokoveld is an arid, remote destination where adventure and culturally curious travelers come to escape the convoys of overlanders and experience immersive experiences with the semi-nomadic Himba and Herero peoples, two tribes who have thrived in the desert for several millennia. Kaokoveld is also home to several endangered species and because of a lack of safari traffic, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to spot animals you may not see in other parts of the country.

Have you ever been somewhere that was so awe-inspiring that you couldn’t even describe it to someone? Dead Vlei of Namib-Naukluft Park is one of those places on earth that you have to see to believe it actually exists. The iconic white clay pan, dotted with 900-year-old petrified trees against the backdrop of red dunes, is one of the most iconic places to visit not only in Namibia but all of Africa. One would think there would be little in the way of wildlife out there, but desert safaris reveal oryx, ostrich, springbok, jackal, and aardwolf, a strange-looking cousin of the hyena.

Do you have a favorite beauty routine or ritual that you like to practice at home? The Himba Women of Namibia are renowned for their intricately sculptured hair. These women first braid their hair, then apply a mixture called ‘otjize’, a blend of butter, fats, goat hair, and red ochre. This not only allows them to create elaborate hairstyles but also protects them from the harsh climate. The Himba are incredibly protective of their cultural practices and way of being, and while they welcome visitors, it is important to respect them, never take photos without asking permission, and dress modestly.
