Here you can meet with the Desert elephant and many other animals. Beautiful mountain ranges and scenery.

Damaraland is interesting for its strange landscape, with conical hills scattered over the countryside. I'm told that Namibia is the part of Africa that was once connected to South America before the continent split off, so this geological event can be seen in the landscape. In terms of wildlife, other than the seals on Cape Cross, the wildlife here is mainly in the form of reptiles such as desert chameleons, lizards, snakes or spiders. What mammals there are in the desert are small, like mice.

Amazing scenery here, for us there was not so much wildlife after being to Etosha,
but we got to see some desert elephants as well as lizards and birds - also very few tourists so great bush vibe!

Very harsh landscape and driving over dusty roads in the middle of nowhere

Not a whole lot of wildlife, as this is the desert. But it is super beautiful and the wildlife encounters there are special (desert adapted elephants, black rhinos)

Scenery amazing esp at Sunrise & Sunset. Not a lot of animals as desert conditions do not provide a lot of food. Animals & plants adapted to the arid landscape. Such an ancient land and interesting rock formations esp visible from the air
