Excellent Service and perfect Star
I hired a 4 days tour in Windhoek, Sesriem & Sossusvlei. The suponer from Anja and Lilly was perfect, with quick response and resolution of any troubles/doubts.
Everything was correct, from the pick up in the AirPort to the hotels and shuttles.
Small things to improve:
- Londingini Guest House in Windhoek has glass bathroom doors, totally visible from the outside! Also this hotel also has a dinner option that is not worth for the offered price (330 NAD pp w/o bev).
- We chose the tent option in Namib Desert Lodge. The only thing to clarify here is that the tents are more than 500m away from the rest of the hotel and there is no phone signal or wifi to ask for a car. The walk is nice but not during the night. However, this situation is tottally compensed by the view of the stars at night as the tent is far from the hotel lights

Good choice for solo travelers
Great Explorations Namibia was able to arrange a 10-day solo-driving safari for me on very short notice. Everything went very smoothly and the various accommodations were all excellent.

Excellent service and a great trip!
I chose one of the more popular self drive routes in Namibia. It was a nine day trip visiting most of the high lights.
Overal the service was great. The car rental pickup and drop off went very smooth and the vehicle (Toyota) was perfect for driving around in Namibia.
The accommodations were amazing. Even though I purchased the basic to medium level accommodations, they were very clean and up to date. Wifi was very fast at each of the accommodations I visited!
The information package was easy to use and was full of useful tips.
I can highly recommend using Great Explorations Namibia for your dream self drive in Namibia. You won't be disappointed.

Perfect self drive Namibian itinerary organiser
Allison organised an idyllic 14 day self drive itinerary. My husband and I knew very little about Namibia and found it very difficult to plan our trip until discovering Great Explorations Namibia. The booking process was very straightforward and Allison replied to enquiries very promptly. Our accommodation was varied and always well located, clean, comfortable and safe. Some of the lodges and camps were so gorgeous I felt like a millionaire and yet the cost was very reasonable.
Namibia itself was so much more than we expected. The landscapes were dramatic and stunning. No one can take bad photos in Namibia. And the animals... We encountered animals and birds everywhere. I was moved to tears watching a mob of elephants interacting with each other at a waterhole in Etosha. I could have stayed forever.
Our itinerary was very well judged with appropriate driving hours. Everyone we met was friendly, courteous and professional. All activities were interesting and very enjoyable.
Our 14 days went by in a flash and we have so many wonderful memories and photos to cherish.
Great Explorations Namibia made our wonderful holiday possible and I couldn't recommend them highly enough.

Professional
We found Lilly so knowledgeable, reliable, and most of all flexible with are changing plans and agenda. She catered to our wish list of areas, accommodation and activities and our trip was certainly great value for money. We loved Namibia and will be back to see what we couldn't cover in three weeks this time and will definitely use Great Explorations again.

Lilly went out of her way to help us with even small details
my wife and I are 74 and 76 retires and were little apprehensive about doing a self-drive of Namibia but with the excellently organized out tour we found no problems and even managed to have afternoon rests as the heat was getting to us. the accommodation was varied and comfortable even the tent camps, with AC inside a tent ! the Suv they provided through Namibia to go rentals seemed big to us but gave no problems we were asked if we needed an extra spare which we declined. We had no flats. the country has lots of rough gravel roads which adds to the adventure . My wife and I felt we got value for what we saw and this time in Africa we got to see cats

Self drive Namibia
We were met by Lilly (Great Explorations Namibia) at Namibiatogo where we picked up our 4X4. She warmly welcomed us to Namibia. She gave us much needed coffee and then presented us with our itinerary, map as well as a booklet with complete instructions for us to follow from day to day. Included was a note about where and when we would need snacks, gas, how long it should take to drive from place to place, how far each day's drive would be with the instructions on which road to take, where to turn and a detailed map of the area. Basically her booklet answered all our questions.....and was referred to each day throughout our drive. The route was interesting and chosen with care. The places we stayed were clean, usually resorts that offered sunset drives, morning and afternoon drives. Usually we had ample time to see things. On our drives there was time to stop and explore. We did not feel rushed.
Lilly is very organized. We had no problems finding the driver sent to pick us up at the airport. He was welcoming, pleasant and showed us giraffes trying to hide behind trees they were nibbling, explained what we were seeing and answered questions. Returning our car was easy at Namibiatogo. And we were transferred back to the airport at the end of our trip with ample time for our return flight home.
Would we go again? In a heartbeat! And we would use both Great Explorations Namibia and Namibiatogo.

Superb experience and would work with them again in a heartbeat
I had an amazing trip with Great Explorations Namibia. Before the trip, they were very responsive and worked with me to create an outstanding itinerary where I was able to experience a tremendous amount in a short amount of time, without feeling rushed. The guide Christie was also very professional, knowledgeable, and passionate about the beauty of Namibia. I highly, highly, highly recommend this company and am already thinking of going back!
