I'd add a visit to cheetah park to that list. I love namibia. It's so sparsely populated and inbetween looks desolate but yet its so stunning and makes you look out in awe at all the space. Makes me want to run around!

Namibia/Mozambique?
Posted on Mar 30, 2009, 05:09:30 by tourman
If I were you I'd prefer Namibia. I'd be soo excited getting "lost" in the unspoilt bushes (perhaps interacting with the bushmen). And being a Ecotourist am certain you'll have better days in Namibia than in Mozambique. But wherever ...
