Wild Wind Safaris is truly amazing. Etosha Safaris is better compare to Kruger and Botswana!
Excellent. The best compare to Botswana, Kruger or Motoba. Lots of wildlife and the park is what I perceive Africa Safari to be. It was supposed to be the beginning of Spring with rainfall, but our 3 days at Etosha had amazing weather and the bush has not grown too much to obstruct the view.
We used Wild Wind Safaris and cannot be happier. From the first phone call, to the arrangement, itinerary, transportation and the guide Rambo, all were truly amazing an highly recommended.

Very poorly organised; disappointing.
Namibia, the people and the wildlife is great; but do NOT use Discovery tours. Different friends and family members have used them and they all say that their tour organisation stinks. I was a single female and on the return from Etosha with one of their drivers I frankly felt unsafe. He left me in the car at a truck stop for an hour with no explanation, was rude, played loud rap music very loud despite my complaints etc etc While at Etosha the tours were not as advertised and very limited. Other people I spoke had similar experiences

Holiday of a lifetime
An extremely well organised itinerary by the Cardboard Box Company with varied accommodation. Local guides were excellent and informative. Scenery was spectacular and the weather behaved itself! We saw a lot of very varied wildlife especially in Etosha National Park. We enjoyed the flexibility of our 4x4 self drive.

Rich in beauty, wildlife and people.
While there are a lot of gaming farms and national parks to see the rich Namibian wildlife, going into the more arid areas of the country will show you as well many animals (Oryx, Baboons, etc.). November the right period to see seals off the coast of Walvish bay, it's some kind of show!
Namibians are generous, positive and welcoming. There are some prejudice between some tribes, but don't listen to nay-sayers: even if some other Namibians would warn you for their aggressive selling techniques, listen to what the Himbas have to say. Their culture is rich and the price not as expensive as in other "tourist friendly" shops.
I have stayed in Townships in both Swakopmund and Windhoek. They are not so as unsafe as what you might hear concerning South Africa, and the taxi drivers are fine. Just do as the locals and all will be fine.

unforgettable adventure
We had a safari for the first time ever and we didn't expect that it would be so much fascinating. The tour was very well organized (thanks a lot to ChameleonSafaris and our guide) and we managed to see the whole country for one week. We saw three absolutely different regions: see shore (Swakopmund), desert (Namib and Sossusvlei) and savanna (Etosha National park). It's not enough, of course, to enjoy every spot properly, but if you're limited in time it is the best choice. We were lucky to see all animals possible in Etosha, climbed the dune in Sossusvlei, did shopping in Swakopmund and lot more. The lodges where we stayed were amazing, we would spend a week in each of them. Very cozy and comfortable with excellent views from the windows to bushes and sunset, wild animals in the close vicinity to lodges (springboks, wildebeests, lots of birds etc). In Namib desert was quite cold at nights and very windy (which is a rarity), but view of night sky with miriads of stars and milkyway are worth it. Overall it was unforgettable adventure which makes us wish to experience it more and more.

Phenomenal!!
I can’t say enough positive things about my tour of Namibia. The nature, intinerary, food, and accommodations were all splendid! And Alvin Chanakira is probably the best tour guide a traveler could ever ask for. He’s funny, smart, and incredibly engaging with all of his guest. Moses (our driver) was also excellent! I will certainly recommend this tour to all of my friends.
Stunningly different
Namibia is a spectacular country of amazing contrasts in scenery, wildlife and historical culture.
The people are lovely. Thoroughly enjoyed our entire visit.

8 day Namibia highlights
Wild Wind safaris are highly recommended. Very professional, excellent guide.
Namibia is such a stunning place to visit. Dramatic, ever-changing landscapes, friendly people and incredible wildlife - mainly at Etosha m, but also just throughout the country.
Be prepared for long days spent in the back of a jeep as the distances are big.
Amazing
the country is well organized, the country receives the tourists very well. The landscapes are fantastic and the wildlife is very beautiful
