Namibia - On the south-western coast of Africa, on the Atlantic coast; the general landscape is dominated by the oldest desert in the world; the Namib. Surrounding areas are dry and visually impressive, with interesting flora and fascinating geological formations. Namibia is bordered by Angola and Zambia to the north, Botswana to the east and South Africa to the south. The Namibian climate ranges from desert to subtropical and is generally hot and dry; precipitation is sparse and erratic. The Namibian economy is heavily dependent of mining, agriculture and tourism.
 
History & Background: After the San (Bushmen) and Khoi people, came the Bantus. Because of the inhospitable coastline, the first Europeans to lay a claim to the land were the Germans who annexed Namibia in the late 19th century. After the first world war, South Africa was given a mandate to rule what was then called South West Africa. After extensive guerilla wars and conflict, Namibia was granted independence in 1990, and as such it is one of the youngest nations in the world.

Scheduled and Tailor – Made Safaris: Namibia has to be one of the most diverse safari destinations in Southern Africa. Below you will find numerous small group, maximum 10 client safaris that Jenman African Safaris runs in and around Namibia.
