Beautiful and desolate landscape
We spent three weeks in Namibia, which Lilly from Great Explorations in Windhoek arranged for us. This was my husband's 60th birthday present and we drove over 9 000 kilometres during the road trip. Sossus Vlei and Sesriem were very hot and the advice from the guides was that we should not drive ourselves, as the sand is very dense. The guides were great and the dunes were spectacular. The lodges along the way were also fantastic. Our only point of concern was that the roads in Etosha are so poor that the driver needs to concentrate on the road full time and does not have the opportunity to view any game. This is something to which the wildlife authorities need to pay attention.

We had a wonderful time in Namibia.
The organization, handling and support of our vacation by Nature Travel Namibia was perfect and left no room for improvement.
Our guide Delano pointed out many special features and animals that we would never have noticed without him and took us to places that we would not have been able to get to without him. His company was incredibly committed and courteous.
The composition of the entire tour, the day trips and the selection of lodges was without exception a fitting and positive surprise.
In our opinion, it was the right decision to do this trip with a personal guide. It gave us plenty of time to enjoy the vacation ourselves, to concentrate on the beauty of nature and we had someone with us who took care of everything else. Great.

fabulous landscapes and spaces
Secret Namibia tour was very nice.
A few advices:
1. take a plaque (iron ?) in the car for sand or jack ! and 10 l of water
2. use google maps not the garmin of your car...you ll get lost
3, book your activities in advance !!! at least a week for the most popular ones....
4. stay 3 nights in Swakop not 2 and do the dunes twice !!!!!!!!!!
5. dont stay long in windhoek (max 2 night) there are so many other nice sites to see ! Take an afternoon tour in Windhoek and go to the market to eat Kapana....
6. bring a few things to give away if you want . In Damaraland they have so little !
7. beware of children in Damaraland wanting to get something they are at risks with the cars and quite sticky.
8, take enough time in Sossusvlei....may be 2 days and 2 visits (?)
Namibia 2024 was an unforgetable marvelous discovery. The south for our next trip !

Not bad
Etosha is good for elephants giraffes and zebras, few more, some lions also
But is not comparável to Tanzânia, Ngogorgoro or Serengueti

Namibia Camping Safari
The 6 day camping safari in the Namib Desert was brilliant. Excellent value for money. Organised through Chameleon Safaris. Our guide and driver Simon really made a difference. His knowledge of the environment and animals was very good, as was his his general knowledge and history. Enjoyed some fascinating discussions over dinner.
The campsites were very well organised. Great amenities.
Who could go to Etosha and not be impressed.
