Namibia Wildlife safaris and game drives Tour Reviews
Honest insights from past guests on our Wildlife safaris and game drives Namibia tours
Anonymous | Traveled in September
However I wouldn’t class the tour as a fully serviced camping trip. The tents were put up but we had to carry stretchers and matrices into the tent which were quite heavy. The truck was also quite old, Vinal seats which made it hot and uncomfortable. The staff however were amazing and the food excellent.
Ann Bromley | Traveled in January
We had a fantastic trip organized by local travel specialists to Etosha and Swakopmund. We were collected efficiently and promptly from our accommodation and felt well looked after and catered for until and equally smooth and efficient drop off to our accommodation on our return. I was impressed with the professionalism and courtesy of all the staff we encountered, who also catered for a range of dietary needs within the group. Our driver was knowledgeable and attentive, and made sure everyone was comfortable, and the group very quickly gelled together and made some lasting friendships. The trip itself has to be one of the best I've encountered, as Etosha is known to be one of the best safari areas in the world for seeing a range of animals from close range. We stayed in some amazing lodges which felt surprisingly luxurious with comfortable beds and a good range of facilities. The desert is unique and we had encounters with different groups of tribal people, all handled with sensitivity in managing interactions. I would highly recommend this trip and I would love to go again.
