Experienced, knowledgeable guides, great food, interesting and varied agendas.
The guides were friendly and helpful, knew the facts about the different areas we visited, spoke good English, always courteous and often had a good sense of humor. The assistants/cooks also participated in putting up tents, made good tasting and varied food and lent a helping hand whenever needed.
I would only recommend changing one or two camp sites, especially Dqae Qare San Lodge. It had no water & no electricity. We heard there usually is some problem while in that camp.

Great experience!
Our experience with Wild Dog Safaris was excelent! From the organization to the kindness of the guide/driver and the chef passing through the natural sightseeings included on the Sossusveil 3-Day Tour, all the animals we saw and the nice food we ate, the whole experience with this guys was very good. Everything was made on time, never delayed. Maybe the truck must be renewed because the one we had for the tour was a bit "old" ;)
Be sure we will take another tour with Wild Dog Safaris when returning to Namibia and we will recommend them to our friends and other tourist.

Wild Dog Safaris opened Namibia's windows of extraordinary beauty & wild life with care and context.
The 7-Day Northern Namibia Safari excelled my expectations.
Organized to the T, we always new what was next in store, and as Namibia's absolute beauty opened up to us day-by-day we smiled and conversed and laughed and were awe-inspired the whole way.
Service came with utmost care and context.
Always safe we closed our eyes in the safety of good tents in camps--some of them--that will remain with us for always as the light of our fires burned down to glowing embers. Thank you Paulie for vegetarian fare, and George for running a tight 'ship', keeping us informed and a 'family' out in nowhere land. You were the best.
Wild dog safari staff are professional and friendly. 10-day course covers almost whole points!
Pre-trip : the staff gave us timely feedback, answered well.
During trip: the tour guide and assistant well organized and managed 10 days. Safely driving, quick set up campsite, meals were good, gave us professional advices, joyful chat, as ambassador of Namibia.

Outstanding Namibian Safari
We had a 12 day accommodated safari that arranged and led by Wild Dog Safaris. It was excellent! Our guide, Ian, was first class and extremely knowledgable of the animals, birds and the Namibian culture. The accommodations were in 4-star lodges, the Erongo Wilderness Resort and Okonjima Reserve were particularly memorable. The vehicle provided by Wild Dog was comfortable and excellent for game viewing and photography. The variety and number of animals and birds in Etosha National Park was very impressive. This was my 4th African safari and it was the best!

Thanks to fantastic staff: Liza for organizing it for us and patiently answering endless questions, Alfeus for cooking the most amazing meals in the middle of nowhere, Marcus and Elias our exceptional tour guides with their in depth knowledge of so many aspects of this extraordinary country with its spectacular wild life, plants and scenery. The most beautiful weather and awesome fellow travelers were added bonuses.

Great experience in Namibia and Botswana
Many highlights - the Kalahari Bushman and Bushwoman, camping on a remote island in the middle of the Okavango Delta, the dried up forest, driving through Damaraland, the meals and sitting around the campfire each night.

Excellent Private 10-day Tour
We join the Wild Dog Safari in May 2018. It was an awesome experience in Namibia and we all enjoyed so much. We did both camping and lodging during our trip.
Anja, our tour planner, was very helpful and responsive. She replied our email promptly and arranged all bookings for us. She prepared a very detailed itinerary which was perfectly fit our request.
Our tour guide, Markus, was very knowledgeable in geography and zoology. He always had a pair of eagle eyes and could spot out animals far away. We could see most of the animals (including lions, rhinos, large groups of elephants, leopard and cheetahs) in Etosha NP.
Price of a private tour was reasonable. We planned to have quad-biking in Swakopmund but finally it was cancelled due to the rain. Wild Dog initiated to do a refund for us.
Overall service was great.
Thanks Wild Dog for giving us an unforgettable vocation in Namibia!
