The best time to go

When to go in Namibia?

The best time to go to Namibia is during the dry season, between April and November: it's warm and sunny throughout the country. Those readers with allergies would be better off, however, putting off their trip until the first few weeks of November or the month of April: there may be showers here and there, but they won't stop you enjoying the trip and you'll run into fewer tourists. Do make sure, however, to avoid the rainy season.

9 Day Namibia Trip with Wild Dog Safaris

16 September 2019

Since this was our first visit to Africa, our visit was a general road trip to the top sights in the northern part of Namibia.

This was a very diverse trip - lots of animals but also Himba and Herero peoples. From the heat of most of the trip the contrast with the cold Skeleton Coast on the Atlantic was welcome before traveling to Sossusviei

The trip was well organized, with detailed information about route, and the properties for overnight stay were great. Namibia is surprisingly easy to get around, with the roads well sign-posted. The roads can be a bit challenging as you get off the beaten path, but that's also makes the visit interesting. Each stop -- Sossusvlei, Swakopmund, Cape Cross, Etosha -- was interesting, charming or exciting in its own way. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to Namibia, and wish I had more time to see more of the country.
