Travel overview

 

Cycle through one of the least populated countries on the planet. Experience Namibia from another perspective as a cyclist. Wonderful landscapes, the wide African sky, unique desert adapted animals, the kind locals...

The national parks and wildlife reserves with their variety as well as their unique landscape and vegetation make Namibia a popular country. On this bike tour you cycle along the edge of the Fish River Canyon, the second largest canyon in the world. You discover Namibia by hiking in the oldest desert in the world and cycling through the desolate Naukluft Mountains. In Swakopmund you experience the time when the Germans colonized this area and ride to the Spitzkoppe, the impressive landmark of Namibia, with its massive granite peaks. You have a look at the thousands of years old artistry from the bushmen (Khoisan) of the time in Twyfelfontein and go on safari in the Etosha National Park.

This 18-day cycling holiday offers the unique opportunity to discover the beauty of the Namibian landscape up close by cycling on selected bike routes. You can actively experience these wonders from another perspective as the usual bus.

During the day it is pleasantly warm up to 28 °C, at night the temperatures in the desert can drop to a few degrees above zero.
