Visit Damaraland and the North
Damaraland’s raw and rugged beauty makes this perhaps one of our favourite areas in Namibia and certainly one of the most scenic. It is made up of a glorious collection of the most dramatic landscapes the country has to offer – from Spitzkoppe, Erongo and Brandberg in the south to the breathtaking stark red mountains in the north.
The area is not only a visual treat, but offers a variety of fascinating experiences. A visit to Twyfelfontein is a must, home to some of Southern Africa’s oldest prehistoric rock art and engravings. The area is most well known, however, for its population of desert-adapted wildlife. Not strictly an official wildlife area, do not come with expectations of your more typical game-viewing experience. There are no national parks here; the wildlife are ever-moving and can cover vast distances in a day. But with the right guide, you might just be lucky enough to encounter the critically endangered black rhino, desert-adapted elephants and even lions.
Further north in the Kunene region and right up to to the northern border of Angola, you will find Namibia‘s most remote and inaccessible areas where the land and people still remain untouched by civilisation to this day. For those wishing to see the Herero and Himba people, nowhere in the country will provide a more authentic experience.
These example itineraries are here to get you inspired, but no two True Travel holidays are the same. Our Namibia experts start planning each trip with a blank piece of paper, designing every itinerary 100% personalised to you.

The journey to Namibia and Serra Cafema was the best trip I’ve ever done. I really loved the remote camp, the way we travelled there (flying over the endless dunes and amazing coastline in a private plane) and the infinite hospitality, knowledge and passion of the whole team. We enjoyed a lot of activities: we visited the Himba people, which was the experience of a lifetime, took a quad bike tour and boat tour. For my birthday, they organised a private dinner at a beautiful, remote location.
