| Drive through Namibia's wide expanses of pristine wilderness and you could spend hours without seeing a soul. Instead of people there are unique plants and animals; intimate lodges and guest farms take the place of large hotels. From the capital, Windhoek, visitors can choose to explore seemingly endless dunes, deep canyons, well-stocked game parks, the wild Skeleton Coast or the verdant attractions of the Caprivi Strip.
This highly praised guide is written by Chris McIntyre, a tour operator who specialises in southern Africa. His unbeatable knowledge of the country is augmented by ecologist Jonathan Hughes who describes how animals and plants survive the desert conditions. Namibia is the ideal country for a self-drive holiday, so this book is predominantly aimed at those travellers. Fifty clear maps and detailed listings of the lodges, guest farms and bushcamps make this guide the essential purchase.
