Attending an ICD course in Namibia would accord the participants to visit the desert and see the sand dunes side by side with the Ocean. Today visitors have discovered the vast potential of a country rich in natural resources, with desert landscapes, sunshine, wildlife and a rugged, barren beauty. Namibia has a diversity of natural habitats: the rugged coastline and haunting beauty of the Skeleton Coast, the endless stretch of undulating ochre-coloured sand dunes at Sossusvlei, the impressive gorge of the Fish River Canyon winding through the arid landscape of the great plateau, and the vast salt pan of Etosha National Park, one of the world's greatest wildlife viewing venues. These are the attractions that draw travellers to one of Africa's more intriguing destinations, the unspoilt wilderness of Namibia.These are a spectale and all participants are taken for excursions to Walvis Bay and Swakopmund. It’s a chance of a lifetime and ICD combines course sessions and guided tours to the areas of interest in Namibia which include the dessert and the Ocean.
