Friendly, Knowledgeable, and Reliable
This was our first trip to Africa. We were very pleased with the support we received from Great Explorations, esp. Lilly. Not only did she help us put together a great itinerary but provided us with alternatives when our first choice wasn't available. In fact, we feel like the alternatives were even better than the original choices. We also pre-booked excursions in each location with Lilly's assistance, which helped us optimize the time we had. When our son became ill and we needed to make changes at short notice, Lilly was available after hours and worked out a solution for us. Finally, we very much appreciated working with Lilly's rental car partner, Classic Car Rental. I cannot overemphasize how important it is to have a reliable, well-maintained car on the Namibian roads. Great Explorations, Lilly and her team get 5-stars and two thumbs up from us. Highly recommended!

Great tour operator for Namibia self drive safaris
Lilly did an excellent job choosing good options of Hotels and was very organized providing clear instructions of the itinerary including important tips of everything that is important to know during the trip. She also solved very well some unplanned issues in a way to satisfy client needs. Great Explorations Namibia is highly recommended for self drive safaris.

Intimate knowledge of the country , professional , and a great desire to provide the best service
This was our 4th visit to Namibia and we had a wonderful 15 days visiting the Cheetah Conservation Centre , Damaraland and Twyfelfontein , the Skeleton Coast , Etosha NP , and Swakopmund .
Great Explorations provided the very best service in terms of customer information pack , briefing , personal support in terms of booking restaurants, accomodation and guided activities demonstrating their intimate knowledge of the country and tourism contacts . We always seem to have the very best positions in terms of bush chalet/tented accomodation and restaurant table reservations . The vehicle was the best we have hired in Africa and the support briefing was comprehensive in case of breakdown , punctures etc albeit we had no problems whatsoever with the vehicle [Toyota Hillux ]
This was our best trip to Namibia for wildlife with Etosha and Damaraland providing incredible sightings of everything we would have hoped for[Lions ,Cheetahs , leopards , Desert Elephants ,Black Rhino particularly at the floodlit waterholes in the National Park , and whales at Walvis Bay ]
All accomodation was booked by Great Explorations and all ranged from good to excellent . People of Namibia were as always friendly , providing great service and very often displaying amazing multi-language skills even in the remotest of places
We would fully recommend Great Explorations if you are planning a self drive visit to Namibia

A journey of a life time!!!
Family of 4 travelling around Namibia with a quick stop to Victoria falls and Botswana for 32 days. I didn’t know where to start!! I am glad Great Explorations Namibia was there and did all the planning + we were very last minute and they make it happen. Anja was so helpful and so patient with all my questions and respect our budget. She reply quickly to all my requests. Lili was also very helpful and Peter at the car rental. Anja met us on the 1st day and went through the itinerary with us. We had 2 roof top tents and we camped every night. Namibia is now our number 1 country (for it’s beautiful scenery, for the people, for the experience and amazing campsite/lodge). Highly recommended!!!

Excellent service for a wonderful experience
We found Great Explorations after receiving several answers that indicated that it was too late to plan the trip (2 months before). The team not only answered positively but inmediately understood our expectations, type of experience we wanted and respected our budget. Replies were quick and detailed and the first programme was complete and very well explained. We requested to make slight adjustments that were inmediatly done. The accommodation proposed throughout the trip was excellent and most of the lodges were simply exceptional.
Upon arrival, the staff took to time to personally welcome us, review the programme day by day and gave valuable advice. We felt that we had a reliable support for anything we might need along a road trip of many kilometers often in remote areas,
Overall a perfect partner for a unique experience. Special thanks to Anja who was extremely professional, available and helpful.

A Namibian experience that was more than just a journey
The precision and professionalism of Anja allowed the creation of a perfect trip. Thanks to her help and patient everything was organized in an amazing way, starting from the car rental to the choice of the lodges and the interlocking of activities that allowed us to not miss anything of what this incredible country has to offer.
We highly recommend them!

maximun attention to everything!
my assistant Anja was fantastic, in everything. Very quick in contact, already during the planning she gave me advice but also followed my instructions on what I wanted. And she's nice as well as competent. But above all, during the trip he solved various problems for me (not regarding reservations, we didn't have any problems with this!) that I would not have been able to handle alone. This was very important. I will never thank her enough. I would recommend Great Exploration Namibia to everyone.

The Perfect Travel Agency you need!
We’re a family of 4 (parents+twins 9-year-old) and we travelled for a wonderful 14-days-tour around Namibia.
The organization has been perfect and “customized” on our needs and desires: tour design, car rental, accomodation and proposed activities, general advices and nice tipa to fully enjoy the journey.
Anja, our reference, has been fantastic and always available to help us in making the right decision and assisting 24/7.
Hopefully we will cross paths again in the future!

The perfect travel
We travelled last july in Namibia with a tout organized from Anja of Great Exploration. We did a self drive and we were two families with teens.
Everything was perfect. Anja had a lot of patience and organized everything as we wanted and our travel has been really beautiful.
They assist you during all the travel and they are ready for any problem solving.
I would like to re-start right now!! Always with Great Exploration!!
