Checked many different accommodations and was able to pay in one amount rather than paying each site seperately.

Easiest way to self drive in Namibia
A huge thank you to Anita and her team for helping us organize our recent Namibia holiday. She arranged 7 different accommodations over 10 days and a rental 4x4 - and all were perfect for our needs. This was by far the easiest way we could have imagined getting it done and we were given so much additional advice and information that it felt like we were being spoilt.
Anita was so patient in answering all of my questions. Upon arrival in Windhoek, we received a welcome packet which included a highlighted map (tracking our entire journey) and a SIM card with some airtime already loaded - classy touch! I cannot recommend The Cardboard Box Travel Shop enough.

Best holiday ever!
We arranged a 20 day self drive holiday in Namibia and Botswana with Cardboard Box Travel Shop. Everything was super and we recommend highly. When we return we will use them again.

Very knowledgable
Chantelle was brilliant. She replied to our emails very quickly and answered our numerous questions thoroughly. She also knew the lodges & country very well so could advise according to our budget.

Rachael's attention to detail was amazing!
Our safari last year to the Caprivi region and also into Botswana and Victoria Falls was an absolute delight.
Rachael ensured that all details, vouchers, booking etc.. were absolutely perfect!
She even met us at the airport on arrival to ensure we were aware of visa regulations for the Botswana/Zimbabwe section of the safari.
Visitors to Namibia should be aware that it is very (too) easy to drive at high speeds on their excellent roads.

Thorough and very knowledgable
Communicating with Bernard was an absolute pleasure. We made all our bookings through the Cardboard Box Travel Shop's Interactive Map (http://map.namibian.org) and did most payments online. Bernard made all the bookings for Etosha on our behalf so we had no stress at all. Apparently it is very difficult to make National Park bookings. Highly recommended.

Family travel in Namibia a success
We had a great family camping safari in Namibia. We drove 2600 kms over 2 weeks in a nice toyota hilux thanks to Namibia Car Hire and Cardboard Box. Allison from Cardboard Box travel agency was fantastic from start to finish. She was responsive, provided recommendations when I asked and was really easy to deal with on planning the safari. Their website is helpful, the interactive map is really useful as well as the suggested routes and descriptions of camps/lodges. I highly recommend them.

Great Namibian experience
Allison from the Cardboard Box was terrific. She tailored a tour to suit us and answered all our questions promptly. I was dealing with other operators in South Africa at the same time and Allison's service was so far above the others - and far exceeded my expectations. I would not hesitate to recommend that others use the same service.

The Bible for booking in Namibia!
I found the address of Cardboard box travel shop out of luck while reading forums on Namibia. And what a luck: aside from having a great team to help and advise me on my bookings (thanks again Lilly!), the site and interactive map is litterally the perfect tool to find the right place to stay and book it as easily as can be. My only wish: that they were existing for each country I plan to visit!!!
