Remote Lodges In Namibia
Wild, remote, isolated, off the grip and off the beaten track; these are the phrases associated with the collection of lodges and camps that you will find below.
If getting as far away from humanity as possible and experiencing Namibia as it was 200+ years ago is your goal, then look no further than any one of the lodges listed on this page. These lodges offer visitors the ultimate in privacy and exclusivity as they simply do not have neighbouring lodges within a 50 to 75 kilometres radius, some do not even have neighbours, they are the only lodge in the whole area.
Note; a few of these lodges in Namibia are tricky to get to, either a chartered flight or a long day in a 4x4 vehicle is required.

Continuing our series of dining in Africa, we look at the Namibian capital, Windhoek. More and more visitors are becoming aware of the unique attractions of Namibia as a safari destination.

The Uyaphi team has compiled a list of the "Best Places to go in Namibia" which most safari itineraries would include. Namibia is different from most African safari destinations.
