Ride Namibia

 
In Namibia we offer some of the toughest trail rides in the world. They are not to be tackled lightly and you will need to be riding fit. That said, there are also some rides for the less experienced rider too to the Desert Homestead.

The expedition-style rides in Namibia are longer than the average riding 'holiday' and can last for up to 12 days, spending from 6 to 10 hours in the saddle each day.

When To Go
There is no bad time to visit Namibia, though depending on what you wish to see, there are certain months that are better than others. For game viewing the dry season months of May to October are best. Daytime temperatures during this period range from 20 - 30°C, with chilly mornings and evenings. The rainy season is from November to March, which is also when the temperatures are at their highest, sometimes reaching as high as 45°C in the far north and south of the country. Birdwatching is best after the rains when numerous flooded depressions attract migrant species.

July to December are by far the busiest months for tourism and if you are planning to visit during this time - it is imperative that flights and accommodation are booked as far in advance as possible.

Getting There 
You can travel from London Heathrow via Johannesburg (with South African Airways, British Airways or Virgin) or Air Namibia have flights to Windhoek via Frankfurt. Domestic flights connect most of the major towns in Namibia.

Visas
British and US citizens do not require visas.
