Namibia 'has a lot to offer imaginative travellers'
Friday, November 20, 2009Imaginative explorers can have a great time in Namibia, according to its tourist board.
With South Africa hosting the football World Cup next year and interest in the country booming, Namibia Tourism suggested that travellers also check out its neighbouring country in the west of the continent in 2010.
The tourist board advised visitors to take advantage of Namibia's safaris in the Etosha National Park, where they can see elephants, lions and zebras in their natural habitat.
Environmentally-friendly explorers could find themselves among vast deserts, diverse eco-systems, mountain ranges and savannahs, while adventure-bound travellers can indulge their passions for water sports, skydiving or even sand skiing.
Maureen Posthuma, Namibia Tourism's Europe area manager, commented: "We are pleased to continue welcoming visitors to Namibia throughout this period and it is great that holidaymakers don't need to avoid the southern regions of the continent during such a popular period."
Namibia has a population of 1.83 million and its capital city is Windhoek.
