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!

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!

Fantastic Trip, Excellent Company!
I am a solo traveler have just returned from a 2 weeks holiday in Namibia - the 14 days North and South accommodation trip with Wild Dog Safaris was fantastic from start to finish! It was an awesome experience I enjoyed so much!
Elsie, my tour planner representative was very helpful and responsive. She replied emails promptly and arranged all bookings & payments professionally
Our guide, Willem (North) and Markus (South), were first class and extremely knowledgeable of animals, birds, Namibian cultures, and zoology. Willem always had a pair of eagle eyes and could spot out animals far away. The variety and number of wildlife seen in Ethosha NP was very impressive. Markus, was knowledgeable about Namibia histories and geology. Both are excellent drivers & guides
The accommodations were all very comfortable with friendly & helpful staffs. Food was great all along with options to cater vegan, vegetarian, kosher, plus other specific needs. The vehicle provided was comfortable and excellent for game viewing and photography.
I particular like Wild Dog's itinerary which covered all highlights in Namibia with a mixed balance of activities in safari, cultural historical visits, coast, desert & dune experiences, canyon walk, some exploration in petrified forest, rock engraving, and fossil sites etc. Namibia is a beautiful country with stunning scenic all along the drives and worth the miles
Everything went well on the trip, i was well looked after. All cost and fees were upfront, all queries answered clearly. Good value and great team front to back - I highly recommend Wild Dog Safaris to everyone!
Thank you Wild Dog Safaris for giving me such a spectacular and memorable trip. Namibia has rated the #1 scenic country that i have traveled so far!

The best trip with the best company!
I took the 14 Day Namibia Experience with 7 days in the South and 7 Days in the North. It was an amazing experience and Wild Dog was the best! Whole staff is very friendly, guides are very knowledgeable, & cooks are fantastic when they add their own flair. Camp sites are beautiful (the sunsets!), tents are easy to put up, and the buses are comfortable to spend the long drives on (Namibia is a big country and Wild Dog gives you the whole experience of seeing all the major attractions so you've gotta span the distances to get there -breaks are regular and it's never too much). The organization has clearly taken from their vast experience and listened to what folks feel like has worked in the past so everything is easy and smooth. There's a really nice balance between showing you things you wouldn't be able to get to on your own and/or they have inside knowledge about and letting everyone have free time to relax and explore without being led around. You'll get so much more out of the experience if you participate and want to get to know about the different sights. There were 8 people (including me) on each half and since most people were enthusiastic about and interested in the experience, we formed a great group both weeks!
