African tours are very popular and selecting the one that is best for you and your family may take extensive research before making a decision. There are a multitude of countries on the African continent to choose from and while some are set up to accommodate tourism others offer a chance to see the wilder side of African culture as it was seen decades ago. Namibia safari packages are reputed to offer the best of both of these options for their clients.
There are many varied and beautiful areas to be experienced in this country. You will find mountains, coastal beaches, high plains and deserts that offer beautiful scenery as well as a wealth of wilderness and wildlife to enjoy. Walking safaris and air trips are part of nearly every trip and each territory visited might serve as a the high point of your stay. Most tours will cover three or more regions contained within the area.
One air excursion that is highly recommended is to the Skeleton Coast. Here you will see beached whale bones as well as ships that have washed ashore after sinking. It is an experience that should not be missed while in Africa. Most safaris include a visit to this area in the itinerary.
There are other air tours available for visitors that allow you to view the wildlife from the air and on the ground. You may also want to fly to the more remote camps located in the high desert. Self driving tours are also available through tour companies. You are supplied with maps and GPS and allowed to traverse the routes at your own speed. Many travelers choose to leave the vehicles at local lodges while they travel into the wilderness with guided tours.
When selecting your package you may want to select one that offers housing in various lodges located in the areas you are visiting. Some of the lodges offer many amenities found in cities. They may have several dining rooms to choose from and swimming pools which will appeal to any children in your group. Most include activities like day trips into the bush for wildlife viewing or overnight camping outings in nearby wilderness areas. Some lodges include these activities in the cost of your stay while others do not. Guests are advised that these additional costs can sometimes exceed the cost of their lodging.
Another type of package may travel from camp to camp throughout the areas to be visited. You can expect to have a private guide provided for these tours. The settings are much smaller than seen at the lodges with only six to thirteen tents available for guests. Meals are served in a communal setting and large bonfires give it a wild west feel.
From the camps guests are taken into the country side to view elephants, zebra, and rhino. This country has some of the last rhinos that have not had to be reestablished in the mountain desert areas. You may also see big cats, such as lions or cheetahs but they are very reclusive and are seldom seen. This country can also boast of some of the most beautiful scenery in the world. From red mountains to painted desert scenes and lush valleys that teem with various antelope and deer.
This area is off the beaten track for tourists but you may find that one trip to Namibia is not enough to truly appreciate all it has to offer.
