Involved in a tug-of-war among various European powers, followed by a struggle for autonomy with South Africa in the late 20th century, Namibia is a relatively new country which only gained its independence in 1990.

Remaining as one of the least populated countries on the continent, today Namibia is a favorite destination for off-the-beaten track Africa, offering holiday-goers travel adventures of spectacular variety.

Located on the Eastern Atlantic coast next door to South Africa, the country's northern reaches include the Etosha Pan, home to enormous herds of antelope, zebra, and elephants - while along the coast lies the Namib Desert as well as the richest source of diamonds on the planet (the Diamond Coast to the south) where the hot sands run down to the icy waters of the Atlantic, resulting in perpetual and other-worldly fog.

For more spectacular natural wonders, no trip to Namibia would be complete without experiencing the Fish River Canyon, second in size only to the Grand Canyon in the U.S.
