This Namibia travel package includes 1 night in Namibia’s German influenced capital, Windhoek, followed by a 3 day tour of the red dunes of Sossusvlei, Namibia’s number one tourist attraction.
Windhoek has only existed for just over a century with its name being corrupted from the original ‘Winterhoek’ during German colonial occupation which lasted until the early 20th century. The city is the country’s commercial hub and set in the crisp hills of the central highlands its historical architecture makes it a very attractive place.
Despite being Namibia’s number one tourist attraction, Sossusvlei still manages to feel isolated. The dunes, which reach as high as 325m are part of one of the oldest and driest ecosystems on earth, and are forever changing with the wind altering the shape of the dunes and colours shifting with the changing light.
