    Deep in the Namib Desert, just relax in the evening and listen to the sounds of the barking geckos. Bright stars above you and a camp fire will give you the real Namibia holiday feeling. Enjoy being surrounded by vast and majestic sand dunes – and nothing else – just wonderful tranquility and solitude.

    The Namib Desert in Namibia is the world’s most ancient desert. The Namib Naukluft National Park with the world's highest sand dunes in Sossusvlei is the right holiday destination in Namibia for those who want to combine awesome scenery with seclusion, solitude and exploration.

    The red shimmering sand dunes reach as far as the eye can see and are a spectacular sight, especially in the luminescent glow of the first rays of the morning sun.
