Hey Guys, The Namibia Guide is so good. We hope to plan another trip in the future. So comprehensive is this guide. You didn't miss anything. You do all your guides so well and our go to for guides. If you are familiar with Rick Steves Travel Guides, who is a icon in the travel world. You would do him proud. Thank you so much for great tips. Sending you love from Richmond Va.❤❤❤ Harriet, Jim and Yuki P.S. We were just in Las Vegas visiting a friend who has cancer. The average temperature was Daytime 108 F degrees Nightime 99 F degrees.
Oh awesome, you are going to have the best time! When did you book and what month are you going? :) Yes flights from the States are insanely priced, but you will find the food and everything else very affordable once there:)
Interesting! As a born Southwest African (Namibian) you did not cover everything. You left out the most important element of Namibia - the people and the warmth and welcoming attitude (called gemutlichkeit in German - there is no word to translate it). Namibia is very much like South Africa since it was a protectorate of South Africa for nearly a century - but with better roads and electricity. There usually are a doctor and a pharmacy in all big towns and sometimes even in a small town. The food and most produce are since independence mostly imported from South Africa, so fairly expensive. Previously it was locally grown and produced. Beef is still exported. If you really want to experience the best of Namibia go with a local tour guide or company. Self drive is ok - if you know where to go and what to do - however, you will miss out on the interesting history and folklore. As far as I know South African citizens enter free - no visa required (last I was there - I am no longer resident in Namibia). Get travel insurance that will cover a private hospital or clinic (if you may need it)!!!! ⚠ South Africa has one good thing that Namibia does not have - the road back to Namibia.😇
Got this suggested in my feed because I watched and liked your Greek videos. (Our family is really psyched up now, and on the verge of booking for next year. In particular, you inspired us that a Greek holiday is possible coming from a weak currency country). However, since I’ve been to Namibia a few times and loving it, I have to commend this video as well. As well as the country, Namibia. Given the challenges you expect from such a vast country with relatively few people scattered over it, it is relatively easy country to travel in. Interestingly, many of the things South Africa is known for, are even more pronounced in Namibia. The food you mention,cultural past times like braai, wide open spaces, sunny climate, the ubiquity of the Afrikaans language in interactions amongst locals. And Springboks which is South Africa’s national animal, but it is in Namibia where you’ll see lot’s of them. Thanks. I agree it is an incredibly underrated country.
Hi! Do you really need the international license for renting a car? Or with the English translation and my home country will do? I’m from Mexico, thanks for all the tips!
Interesting, helpful presentation! However, though mostly there is no or very low risk, unfortunately Namibia is NOT completely malaria free - especially so during the rain season. When it comes to high alcohol condumption, NAM ranks amongst the top 10 in the world - #5 in Africa.
You two are really smart to be doing this at your age. I started full-time travel at 41, and it has been going on for over a year now. They say solo travel is lonely, and that is true, but I have no plans to go back now. You should go to Cornwall in the UK as it is such a beautiful place. Just don't go to London as it is very expensive and kind of a waste.

We booked a 3-week trip through Viatu. They are awesome. Very helpful. We worked with Mardi. Tickets from the States are not cheap!
