Unforgettable Amazing Experience
We initially booked this trip for April 2020 but as we all knew, disaster striked and the whole world went into lockdown! but after 3 years, we got back in touch w DTT n they accepted that we could still go on the tour n our deposit was still valid, we finally made the trip! We also finally met Fanuel and Notty whom we have been discussing and planning our trip (via whatsapp), both have been very helpful in providing the information we needed.
On the safari trip itself, our guide - Lukus was just amazing! He took the time to explain everything to us at every site/sight we stopped to see. He was also very flexible with our request. We were lucky that we were the only 2 people on the trip, so if we saw something interesting or if we spotted an animal, Lukus happily obliged n stopped the car for us to take photos and wait for the animals to pop up again. The places we went to was just jaw-dropping amazing, the landscapes of Namibia is truly out of this world (and i've traveled to many places -Atacama dessert, the sahara, Tibet, n so forth, i think Namibia wins hands down. The landscape is so diverse, we went to Sossusvlei n Deadvlei, its like an artwork. Lukus hiked up the Big Daddy with us until we gave up n took the shortcut down. He also made sure we were safe all along the way. If we needed to get something, Lukus was more than happy to make a small detour to help us.
We wanted to support a local Namibian travel company when we were looking for tours rather than an international travel conglomerate and I'm glad we made this decision. Thank you again, DTT for making this travel an unforgettable experience!

Great route and local guide
This was a great tour. Despite a slight wrong turn on the way to Deadvlei and a small oversight with the tents, my tour guide was able to adapt to the situation and find solutions when necessary. All destinations and shared knowledge was very interesting. We added on an extra night in Spitzkoppe which would recommend to anyone.

Well-organized and authentic experience with great customer service and guide
I had a 3-day camping trip with Discovery Transfers and Tours to Sossusvlei, Namibia in September. I was very happy with their services, the logistics, the camping equipment. The tour operator promptly responded to my questions and messages. Lucas, our driver and guide was excellent, almost felt like a friend towards the end of the short trip. I really recommend the camping version of the trip. Sossusvlei is a really unique place and climbing the Big Daddy dune was an unforgettable experience.

Kindness at its best.
Excellent communication. We did not struggle to get hold of Discovery Transfers and Tours. They respond to our email promptly. They even provided their WhatsApp number for easy access and response. Our 7 days tour was fantastic, the lodges, the food and the guide was absolutely helpful and professional during our tour.

Excellent Tour Operator & Guide, Lukus
I highly recommend Discovery Transfers and Tours for a great time in Namibia. My friend and I had only a week left before arriving in Namibia and were pressed for a reliable tour operator. Communication with Notti and Fanuel was great with prompt replies. They had catered to our requests and drawn-up an ititnerary just right within our budget.
What made the trip a 100% better was our guide, Lukus. He is a fantastic guide, definitely request for him! A very knowledgeable, yet humble and patient person. At Sossusvlei, we were aware that he did not need to hike up the dunes with us, but he did, because he knew the hike would be difficult. Without his constant encouragement, I'm sure my group would have just given up the hike in just 5 minutes. He even helped my friend down the dune, into deadvlei! Lukus also has extremely sharp eyes and is well aware of the habits of different animals. He always remained positive and communicated with other drivers to exchange information on animal sightings. Thanks to him, we saw ALL of the Big 5 in Etosha (lion, leopard, cheetah, elephant, rhino), in just a 2 game drives. He even drove extra miles so I could see more lionesses! We definitely felt safe and reassured having him around and were so glad that we did not have to do a self-drive, especially with the driving conditions in Etosha National Park and Sossusvlei. Thanks to Lukus, we had an amazing time in Namibia and can't recommend Namibia enough to our friends!
TLDR: Discovery Transfers and Tours is a reliable tour operator that takes into consideration your interests and replies very quickly. Our guide, Lukus, was AMAZING - definitely request for him. We got the best experience in Namibia thanks to Lukus.
