Hunting in Namibia

Namibia Hunting Safaris

16% of Namibia consists of deserts, making it the driest country in Southern Africa. It, therefore, boasts exclusive species that have adapted to this extreme heat and surroundings. Doing a safari in Namibia may not deliver the herd size and density of wildlife that you may witness in other African countries, but the varied and unexpected experience makes up for this.

Namibia and South Africa are the only 2 countries in Africa where one can hunt the entire big five. Both rifle and bow hunting are encouraged in Namibia.
