A beyond wonderful experience
I am 72 and my husband 78 and both of us are very fit and healthy. We usually book one night in a country and then wander in back packer style so we wondered what an organised tour would be like. We felt this was the only option because the distances covered are vast and there are few travelers on the road and we certainly made the right choice. We did two seven day safaris to the north and south of Namibia. The guides and cooks were fantastic and served up very good vegetarian food for us especially. Everyone helped with putting up tents and the camp facilities were good and the sites where we stayed spectacular. I had read up on the country before booking and the tours covered what we wanted to see and more. Visits to cheetah and leopard parks were made interesting by having experts talk about the work they were doing although our guide was also especially well informed. The country is exquisitely beautiful with some not to be missed areas such as the Namib desert with its orange sand dunes, Fish River Canyon, and the Quiver Tree forest. The organisers were very laid back but very efficient. We had the time of our lives!

Brilliant Company and camping trip
I joined Wild Dog Safaris in October for a tour around Namibia. It was unforgettable and had a wonderful time. The guides were excellent, and the areas visited was amazing. My favorites includes Etosha Park, Swakopmund and of course the desert. I would highly recommend Wild Dog Safaris to take care of all your travel needs when in Namibia.

From Dust to Delta to Falls
We had such a wonderful time...starting from Namibia to canoeing though the Okavango Delta via Chobe National Park to a sweeping helicopter view of the Victoria Falls!. Wild Dog have sourced fantastic sites that provide stunning locations with great natural beauty as well as hot showers! We were all well fed and watered culminating in water water everywhere at the greatest waterfall in the world!
Wild Dog are really well organised with friendly guide/driver & cook who are always willing to go the extra mile. Not only are they knowledgeable but we also had specialist guides at practically every stop so we were really well informed & discovered a wide range of stuff we didn't expect to...you cannot imagine the myriad uses for elephant dung!
An unforgettable adventure that we will always treasure...thank you so much to one and all at Wild Dog Safaris!

Wild Dog Safaris in Namibia is the best!
In February of this year I contacted Liz to ask her if she could organize a self drive trip for me and my colleagues. She assigned Elsie to make arrangements. I have to say we were very happy with Elsie. She is very enthusiastic, offers great service and is very thorough. During the trip she was available and even in weekends she answered our questions very quickly. The camps and hotels which were picked by Wild Dog Safaris were great. Also the cars they arranged were perfect. We did not have any problems at all. And with 3 cars on gravel roads means that the cars were well up to the job. Namibia is a fantastic country with beautiful scenes and wildlife. We had a fabulous trip! Thank you Liz and Elsie for helping us!

Wild Dog Safaris offers outstanding quality and value, and really knows Namibia.
Our 14 Day Namibian Experience with Wild Dog Safaris was outstanding in every way. In this trip you will see every thing you every wanted to see in Namibia - this included several bucket-list items for me. The trip incorporates wonderful scenery and game viewing, amazing camp sites, the staff are helpful, friendly and knowledgeable and really take care of their guests, plus the food was great. I have done several overland safaris with other tour companies, and Wild Dog is the best. I would highly recommend this company and tour for anyone wanting to see the best of Namibia on a highly enjoyable, informative tour, in a relaxed, friendly environment.

Professional organization of a 3-day trip to Sossusvlei
Having not booked with Wild Dog Safaris ever before, we felt it a bit of a risk a the time. Totally needless: WDS communicated clearly long before the start of the tour. The tour itself went smoothly and we were accompanied by a professional and committed guide. He clearly had our best interests at heart and was helpful with setting up tents, organizing the meals and guiding us through the Namib desert. Highly recommended!

Incredible 7-Day Accommodated Northern Tour!
Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Namibia. Honestly when I first looked at TripAdvisor I was skeptical of how a tour company could have such a high rating but can't say enough great things about this. Great accommodations, comfortable transportation, unbelievable sites, and best of all was our tour guide (Previous). His genuine enthusiasm for everything we did was obvious including his gentle nudging to get up at the crack of dawn to get the best animal sightings. He made a great tour truly spectacular with a lifetime of memories!

Superb! This was our dream holiday and we were able to see all of the wildlife we hoped for and more
We spent two weeks touring the northern part of Namibia with Wild Dog Safaris. It was an incredible experience and Wild Dog were brilliant throughout. Our tour was expertly put together by Memory Garises who was friendly, flexible and professional at all times and worked hard to secure us our dream holiday. Our tour guide Milner Kandjavera was amazing, ensuring that we made the most out of every day and was great company for two weeks. We would highly recommend! Anna, Mark, Matt and Elspeth

Fantastic Self-Drive trip of Namibia!
What a wonderful and special experience - 12 friends (6 couples) planned this self-drive trip about 2 years ago and with the help of Wilddogs we had a fantastic route and lodges booked which allowed us to see a huge amount of Namibia - 10 different locations over 15 nights - more than 2000miles! We had 2 people carrier vehicles 2WD which were perfect and we loved the fact we could drive ourselves through this wonderful country. We headed south from Windhoek and stayed on the edge of the Kalahari, Fish River Canyon, Aus, Sossusvlei, Swakopmund, Twyfelfontein, Etosha South and Etosha East, Okonjima. All the Lodges were lovely and everyone was so friendly and helpful wherever we went. The scenery we travelled through was stunning - long and hot dusty roads made very manageble by sharing the driving and cooler boxes in the cars (provided by Wilddogs!) It was great to have Wilddogs to manage all our bookings and expectations!
