an experience to repeat
The team at Dunas Safari organized a fantastic 18 days self-driving safari to us. While respecting our preferences, they provided valuable advice on lodge choice, connecting routes, sightseeing on the way and tips on how to. Furthermore, they made some last minute reservations for activities/tours and were always available when we had questions on route.
We will recommend them without hesitation to our friends and will certain use their services for our next trip to southern Africa.

It was a wonderfull experience, well planned and wellpreepared.
The human support we got from the staff of Dunas was great, the services were at the level we expected, the lodges were top level, the tour itself was superb. Only one missing phone contact in Swakpmond but quickly overcomed. The car plus GPS were adequated to the road we cross.

Helpful preparation, flawless execution!!
We started with a group of 2 and ended with a team of 8. Some experienced in the African ways, others complete neophytes. Four Canadians and four Germans. Our brief was simple but ambitious: a 3-week self-driving tour of Namibia and Botswana with emphasis on game parks, the Okavango region and the Sossusvlei red dunes. Dunas Safari proposed an initial itinerary and worked with us to adapt it to our requirements, with very helpful insights and advice from João Pedro (owner) and Janine (travel coordinator) - as the size of our group grew, we evolved from one to two 4-wheel-drive SUVs and Dunas managed the challenge of accommodating the whole group in the same lodges along our journey. Dunas Safari managed this extremely well and we ended up with a series of lodges of excellent calibre without breaking the bank. They took care to ensure that each stop afforded the safari experience that we expected with a combination of dawn and dusk game drives and river cruises. During our trip, one of us celebrated a birthday and one of the couples celebrated their 40th wedding anniversary - behind the scenes, Dunas Safari worked with the lodges to provide an unforgettable performance of African dance for the birthday evening and an exquisite bush dinner in the middle of a game reserve for the wedding anniversary. Delightful. At Dunas's recommendation, we booked a hot air balloon ride over Sossusvlei - though not cheap, it is worth every penny, for the unique perspective on this breathtaking landscape. Janine and João Pedro were tireless in their support and constant follow-up of our adventure, maintaining contact, providing guidance along the way and watching over our shoulder to make us feel comfortable and safe. We can't say enough good things about Dunas Safari and highly recommend them for excursions in this magnificent part of the world!!

Awesome
We did a self drive through Namibia with Dunas Safaris and I must say that JP was wonderful to deal with and that I have to apologise to him, I put him through alot with changing accommodation etc, he was always very polite, helpfull, reassuring, quick to respond to any emails and was honest in his recommendations, Thank You, Thank You, Thank You and I am sorry for everything that I put you through.
Now to Sylvia, what an assett to this company, she was lovely and so pleasant to deal with. She meet with us on our first day and went through absolutely everything with us, she recommended places to eat at that she had been to and places to visit. This is a great idea, to have staff that have been to these places and have experienced all aspects of them. There should be more of it as it put our minds at ease and added to our experience.
There was only one little criticism, when 4 adults book a self drive safari you need a vehicle that can accommodate 4 big suitcases, 4 backpacks & an esky. We were luck enough to be up grade from a Rav 4 to a Toyota Fortuna. The website showed a Landcruiser, our paper work said we were going to get a Nissan Pathfinder, but when we got to the Airport there was the Rav 4. But you need no less than the Toyota Fortuna that we had, so it all turned out fine with our upgrade.
I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Dunas to anyone and I am letting JP know that we will using them again as we plan on coming back (laugh) he is going to groan when he reads that, but he has 2 years to recover from this holiday.
Everything was top shelf, the accommodation, the service, the food, the animals (loads of them) and the experience.
A big Thank You to Dunas Safaris, it was Awesome!

One more time, Amazing!
8 years ago I had one of the most fantastic experiences of my life traveling around Namibia for 10 days on a self-drive with the support of Dunas Safari and since then I have recommended them to all family and friends...
Since then, there was not even one person who complained at any point ... there were always the best compliments and thanks for the indication of Dunas Safari!
And, once again, this 2017 trip exceeded all expectations.
An special "thank you" to Inês for the immediate answers to our questions, daily check-ins and all the support during the trip!

Amazing trip!
The all trip was planned to the detail and the lodges were absolutely amazing! Breathtaking and unforgettable landscapes. We were a group of 9 in two cars and we drove around 5.200Km in 17 days with the useful indications and markings in the maps. Simply superb the way Dunas, specially , Sylvia, organized the 18 days.
I can only recommend Dunas and will definitely call them whenever I want to plan another safari trip :)
