Summary

Namibia must be considered one of the finest places in the world to find and photograph reptiles, with over 200 species of reptile (of which almost a quarter are endemic) found in some of the most breathtaking habitats on Earth. It is also home to some of the world's most photogenic reptiles. Web-footed Gecko, Namaqua Chameleon and the stunning adders in the genus Bitis, share their sun-scorched home with Peringuey’s Adder, Horned Adder, Wedge-snouted Desert Lizard, cobras and Anchieta’s Dwarf Python plus other wildlife such as Lion and Black Rhinoceros, Secretarybird, Crimson-breasted Shrike, Quiver Trees and the monotypic Welwitschia mirablis, a living fossil and one of the most extraordinary plant species on Earth.

This special itinerary has been expertly crafted by our Namibia-based guides to encompass the best of Namibian herping. The group size for this holiday is limited to just six participants, and we'll explore this magnificent country using a custom 4x4 cruiser, with filtered water, wi-fi and air conditioning, as we travel in comfort between beautiful habitats in search of reptiles and amphibians, using hand-chosen hotels and lodges as we go.

We can happily arrange tour extensions to visit Etosha, Okonjima, and other areas of Namibia. Please get in touch should this be of interest.
