There are many reasons why Namibia is such an attractive self drive holiday destination:

Easy

Accessibility
: great roads ensure you can see almost the whole of Namibia by road year round
Wide choice: of both destinations, accommodation options, car rental options
Safe: there is almost no crime in Namibia
