Bradt - Namibia

Beskrivelse

Discover Namibia with this fully updated guide by travel expert Chris McIntyre, offering everything you need for a memorable trip across this vast and sparsely populated country.

The ultimate travel companion for exploring Namibia's diverse landscapes, wildlife, and culture.

This sixth edition of Bradt's Namibia remains the go-to resource for anyone planning to visit a country more than twice the size of Germany but with fewer than 3% of its population. Chris McIntyre, a seasoned tour specialist, brings you the latest updates, including comprehensive recommendations on accommodation and dining options, ranging from cozy guesthouses to elegant hotels and luxury game lodges.

Whether you’re self-driving, flying in, or joining guided safaris, this guide provides detailed, personally verified GPS coordinates and practical advice. It also features an expanded full-colour wildlife field guide covering mammals, reptiles, amphibians, marine creatures, and birds, helping you spot the incredible fauna Namibia has to offer.

Beyond wildlife, the book delves into Namibia’s rich history, politics, people, ethnic groups, and culture through two informative background chapters. Additional sections cover planning your trip, health and safety tips, and practical information on transport, camping, walking, and even canoeing in the bush.

Thirteen chapters break down the country region by region, from the capital Windhoek to the Southern Kalahari, Namib Desert, Swakopmund, Skeleton Coast, Etosha National Park, and the Kavango and Zambezi regions in the northeast, including excursions into neighbouring Botswana.

With its vast open spaces, towering sand dunes, endless gravel plains, sprawling farmland, rugged mountains adorned with ancient Bushman rock art, and stunning wildlife, Namibia is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts and photographers alike.
