Few destinations in Africa, and indeed anywhere in the world, capture the imagination like Namibia. The country is dominated by the seemingly endless sands of the Namib and Kalahari deserts, home to a wonderful range of experiences as well as a huge variety of wildlife.

Our Sustainability & Charity Manager Anna recently visited our partner charity @PlayItForwardZambia in Livingstone 🇿🇲, and in her words it was “life-changing, perspective altering, and altogether one of the most important trips I’ve ever undertaken in my life.”
Play it Forward is an incredible organization using football to empower underprivileged youth through education, life skills & pathways out of poverty. During her time on the ground, Anna witnessed the harsh realities these children face - long walks to school, drought, hunger - yet she also had the privilege of witnessing their unwavering spirit.
From the smiles on their faces while playing with donated footballs, to the gratitude for a simple nutritious meal, Anna saw firsthand the transformative impact even modest contributions can make.
At @farandwild we're proud to support Play It Forward's mission. For every person who travels with us, we donate $50 to partner charities like Play It Forward that provide education and health activities for youth in Zambia.
At schools like Katubya and Nakawa, Anna met the dedicated teachers rallying their communities to provide education against the odds. She bonded with the inspiring Play It Forward staff, who pour their hearts into nurturing these children's potential.
"The girls' football team were among the most empowered and ambitious young women I've ever met," Anna shared. "Their sights are set on university and brighter futures thanks to Play It Forward."

Laikipia Wilderness is a beautiful, permanently tented camp on the neighbouring ranch to Sosian. There are three camps there; the original Laikipia Wilderness Camp, and two more that can now be taken for exclusive use - Palm Camp and the River Camp.
The camp is up on a kopje and enjoys mesmerising, uninterrupted views out towards eastern Laikipia, while on the other side the Ewaso Narok thunders past, offering an incredible sight as you leave camp and head out on safari.

Did you know that whilst there are 36 different species of wild cat, historically only four cats were officially classed as Big Cats? These are tiger, lion, leopard and jaguar. The criteria were that they belong to the genus Panthera and have a special two-piece hyoid bone in their throat which allows them to roar! 🦁

The Great Migration is always a fantastic spectacle to witness, but in August and September, the famous Mara River crossings happen.
Watch as herds gather at the banks of the river before taking the plunge into the crocodile-infested waters in the hunt for fresh, greener pastures in the northern Serengeti and in the Masai Mara in Kenya. An emotional rollercoaster as you will the wildebeest to make it to the otherside!

Everyone knows that cheetah are the fastest land mammal, reaching speeds of up to 70mph. But did you know it’s been recently discovered that they can reach these speeds backwards!
Only joking Happy #AprilFoolsDay from everyone at #Farandwild
