Adventure Tours in Namibia

Find Namibia overland tours that include some of these great activities.

Bear in mind that many of these Namibia adventure activities are available as optional activities on our tours. You thus have a choice; if you're a daring, ultra-fit thrill-seeker, you can opt for the hair raising adventure travel activities (skydiving, sand boarding or white water rafting), while the leisure travellers can enjoy more relaxed activities such as hiking, bird watching and engaging with the local culture.

One thing's for certain. There is bound to be an activity in Namibia suits you!

Cecilia17 Jan 2011: Ons gaan Namibie in Julie besoek, ons is al opgewonde. Ons toer so aan die onderkant deur, sou graag meer wou kamp, maar nou ja mens kan nie altyd alles kry wat jy wil he nie.
Dayne - OverlandingAfrica.com26 Oct 2010: Hi GB, Overland travel is a great way to travel with like minded people and a great way to explore Namibia. We have weekly departures on tours travelling from Cape Town to Windhoek and Swakopmund. Accommodation in Swakopmund can vary from Backpackers to hotel and lodge accommodation. For long term stays I suggest contacting an estate agency or tourism office in Swakopmund. Alternatively I will be more that willing to book accommodation for you for after your tour.Cheers
GB25 Oct 2010: I am a single mature 50 lady, born in Namibia, currently living in Cape Town. I want to visit my home town either with a private car with people or whatever and travel through Namibia. I might even want to stay there in future and need a room at first (not expenseive) in Swakop to start with. Can you help?
Alissa11 Oct 2010: The tour through Namibia was stunning! We saw lots of animals!
Kelly Morehead18 Aug 2010: How can you claim Namibia is doing more in Ecotourism? They allow 80,000 seals to be slaughtered every year? Eco Tourism would be stopping the hunt and offering more tours of the seals.
Tania - OverlandingAfrica.com20 Apr 2010: Hi Katherine, Lots to choose from. We will ring Grahams cell phone as soon as it is a reasonable hour over there! Chat soon!
Katherine Windley19 Apr 2010: We are stranded in Cape Town from 20th - 29th April due to UK airports closed. There is just me or possibly my brother. We are interested in any tours operating within this time zone to any of the surrounding countries, Namibia/Botswana/Vic Fall...etc. Do you have any tours that we could get onto?
Tania - OverlandingAfrica.com05 Oct 2009: Personally, I like the winter months (May-Sept) when its a bit cooler during the day. But keep in mind that the temperature can be below freezing in the desert at night. This is also prime game viewing time in Namibia.
Andrea05 Oct 2009: When is the best time of year to travel to Namibia?
Tania - OverlandingAfrica.com25 Aug 2009: Hi Jag Van, All countries need a visa in advance for Angola. Contact your closest Angolan embassy for info. It is approx 435 kms from Namutoni to Ruacana and you should be able to do it within a day depending on road conditions. The falls should be fairly full during August as July is a rainy month in Southern Africa. Good luck!
Jag Van25 Aug 2009: Can I enter Angola without a visa at Ruacana falls (US citizen). How much time to drive from eastern side of Etosha national park and by end of August, would the falls be full or barren? Thanks.
