The highlight of our one year round the world trip
We booked a one month self driven tour of Namibia through ATI Holidays shortly after arriving in Windhoek. We rarely use travel agents or other booking services, preferring to make our own arrangements but our lack of prior planning suggested hiring an agent was our best option. Thankfully we went this route because the trip planned by ATI was outstanding, the highlight of our year long round the world trip. An ATI representative met with us to review our objectives, what we wanted to see, our budget and time constraints and came up with an itinerary that covered much of Namibia and included 5 days in Botswana. We rented a truck with rooftop tents and stayed in campgrounds for most of the trip with a few days in guesthouses. The campgrounds and accommodations were generally very nice. We would certainly work with ATI again, highly recommended.

ATI Holidays was very flexible and helpful in putting together a 2-month trip to Namibia for us.
We worked with ATi Holidays to put together a 2-month trip to Namibia this past summer. They pieced together a hiking trip to Fish River Canyon, two volunteer wildlife projects and a self drive safari to Ethosha National Park, Kunene River and Damarland. All pieces fit together perfectly and the entire trip went off without a hitch. ATi was very accommodating and was able to make all our last minute changes. When our backpacking trip in Fish River Canyon was cancelled due to lack of water, they came up with a suitable alternative. They paid attention to all details and even provided us with a cell phone and cool box for our entire trip. The pre-trip information including marked maps for our self-drive was very helpful. Thanks ATi Holidays for making our trip to Namibia a most memorable one!

Chose region - left the rest to ATI - Never disappointed !
We were very lucky having ATI as our first and only enquiry point at what has, and continues to be a rolling Annual Holiday programe since 2006.
Our Self-Drive packages have covered everything that is needed to give you a most enjoyable stay, and even to the satisfaction of revisiting some venues chosen for us, such as Huab Lodge, Anib Lodge, Okanjima Cheetahs, Cape Cross, Mushara for Etosha Park, and the Okavango Delta - once by Road & Boat, but the most spectacular was the Island hopping trip by small plane through Botswana.
What is a great comfort is that ATI's care of your holiday starts well before you leave home (UK), and then land at your destination airport to be greeted and transfered to the starting point, with the fullest of briefing as you start your adventure, because that's what it is !
We treat the Windhoek welcome lodge at Rivendell like home, as it gives you time to unwind and prepare at your own pace with no pressures, and the Staff are so helpful.
Having visited many Southern Africa countries, we are again off to Namibia for Christmas, our only sin in our Grandson's eyes is that we're not taking him this time, as the trip he came with us was the best ever he's had - all down to ATI.
Well, must start packing, so wish all readers good Holiday hunting

Fun to plan and flawless and carefree execution!
This was my second time around using ATI, and how glad I am that I did. David was such fun to with work both times, and he was never once bothered by my thousand questions! As I was a lone traveler, he ensured I was well taken care of everywhere I went. I was welcomed at each lodge/camp like an old friend instead of a stranger. I have recommended ATI to all of my friends interested in traveling to southern Africa.

We had a most amazing Namibia 4x4 adventure thanks to ATI's experience, help and support.
ATI's knowledge of Namibia & help in formulating our itinerary plus their attention to detail and support while we were on our holiday enabled us to have a most memorable adventure. The 4x4 vehicles and equipment supplied was good. We have no hesitation in recommending ATI.

Fantastic experience, well organised and with a tour operator who understood our needs.
Communications were very good, the hire car just what we needed and the wildlife more than lived up to our expectations.

One stop shop for Southern Africa
These guys tick all the boxes, if you are going anywhere in southern Africa from self-drive cheap and cheerful camping or fly everywhere upmarket they will sort it all out for you, they know all the best places to stay and what to do while there. We have used them numerous times and have never been disappointed especially with our trips through Namibia Botswana and Zambia. And we’ll be looking to them when we plan for our next trip soon !

We had wonderful service from ATI.
ATI planned our trip impeccably. When we reached our destination the local transfer staff were very good. Everything lived upto our experience and better.
Thank you

Unforgetable adventure and so well looked after!
We had a wonderful fortnight carefully arranged so that we could experience as much of Nambia as possible, but also that we didn't feel rushed! It was good to know that though we were far from home and in totally new surroundings we had people at the end of the line who were there to help and advise if we needed them. From the moment we arrived and were greeted at the airport Charlotte and David made sure our holiday was everything we could hope for. We stayed in a range of different lodges, from small family run places to five star resorts in the Namib desert. We enjoyed the company of travellers from around the world. Highlights were (of course!) seeing so many different animals, watching honey badgers and porcupines scuffle over food from an evening hide, laughing at the locals who insitsed on wearing ear muffs in the morning due to the 'cold', a personal tour of the skeleton coast and a balloon flight at dawn over the Namib desert. Since our return we've recommended this company to our friends and two other couples have also had a fabulous time out in Namibia with Ati in more recent years. Now married with children we've been waiting for them to be old enough to appreciate (and remember) such an adventure. Not long til we're back again...
