Here, in an area seemingly parched and desolate, the tour enters one of Namibia's richest desert wildlife areas.

The rugged mountains and canyons of the Hoanib River provide a last refuge for some of the continent's most unique wildlife; this is the home of the legendary desert Elephant and the last free-roaming black rhino population on Earth.

Early morning mists generated by the clash between the icy Atlantic Ocean and the warm desert air of the Skeleton Coast, drift inland along the river sand canyon, providing sustenance to the flora and fauna of the region.

Rare succulent plants eke out an existence in this harsh countryside.
