Namibia Tours in October 2026

I loved this trip and I loved Namibia. Our guide Sheona was excellent and made our experience so much better. We got upgraded at a couple of the lodges which was very fun - but all the lodges were excellent. We ate well. It’s a go go go trip. I would recommend doing the Sandwich Harbour tour. I would also recommend finding out all your optional game drive choices before deciding which one(s) you’re going to do. I found the cheetah conservatory a bit off putting although we did learn some good information about conservation there. There were unforgettable moments on this trip and Namibia will always be special to me.

I loved the itinerary! We saw so much in Namibia and Botswana. The wild camping was very memorable in the Okavango Delta. The lodge in Etosha National Park was special as we were walking distance to a waterhole and saw rhinos and leopards! We saw all of the Big 5 on the trip. The sand dunes were a highlight as well. I felt extremely safe as a solo female traveler on the trip. Everything was outstanding on the trip, and very well done. I also loved the group and sharing the experience with like-minded people.

I missed my connecting flight to Windhoek and both local tour company and Explore main office reassured me I’d be looked after which I was. The tour guide and driver was a knowledgeable, capable and really lovely person. She absolutely made this trip unforgettable- her recommendations for our day off in Walvis Bay ( whale watching and 4x4 sand dune trip) were spot on and I’d recommend anyone to do these. The itinerary is full on but you don’t go all that way to sit beside a pool. Everyone who followed my trip were blown away by the diversity and quality of my videos and photos (all of which were taken on an IPhone 16). A small group of 10 was ideal - all like minded people with a sense of adventure.

Brilliant experience led by an excellent driver/guide, who was very pleased to share her information and love of her country. Deadvlei, Sossusvlei, Wolvis Bay Etosha National Park full of surprises. Daily news was posted on WhatsApp site, worked well when internet was available, and very useful for packing and preparing for the day ahead. Some days involved a lot of travelling but I enjoyed the 2 nighters with activities. September was perfect weather wise and no need for malaria tablets. Group of 10 was great, truck was our purpose built vehicle and loved raising the roof when waiting patiently at waterholes. Wonderful trip.

Great overall experience. Great for solo travellers as well as couple and even honey mooners like ourselves. Both the driver Beresford and CEO Johanna?s were outstanding and look forward to using G Adventures in the future.

It was the adventure of a lifetime!!!! Such great memories and I loved that our trip also helped with Cheetah conservation. We are already looking forward to more trips with Nat Geo!
