A wonderful experience
We organized an 8-day classic safari with Nature Travel Namibia. The management of the trip and any necessary customization was made very effective by Amber's availability, always ready to respond to our every request. The trip was very well organised, our guide Colandri was very knowledgeable and friendly, a nice person full of enthusiasm who showed us many secrets of Namibian nature. All in all an experience to be highly recommended.

Fabulous experience - exceeded expectations!
Working with Petra at Nature Travel Namibia was a delight. She was responsive, provided helpful communications and ideas and clearly answered any questions. She worked hard to put together an amazing itinerary that met all our goals for the trip. The information provided during the planning process and ahead of departure was perfect and ensured we were well prepared. She even went above and beyond and arranged for me to have a yoga mat! Everything during our trip went smoothly - travel, transport, guides and all the accommodations were wonderful. We found the staff across the board to provide excellence service and to be warm and welcoming. Our driver/guide in Namibia took great care of us along our journey. Exploring Botswana and Namibia was an incredible experience and would highly recommend visiting and using Nature Travel Namibia to help plan your trip.

Superb communication, itinerary perfectly matched our needs and the tour itself was excellent.
We weren't sure whether we could afford a safari holiday to Namibia, so we went to Nature Travel Namibia with a whole raft of questions and possible scenarios. They were prompt in replying (every time), very flexible when it came to our suggested changes (especially when we had a last minute yearning to see Hippos, causing a complete rescheduling of our itinerary!) and very helpful in providing the kind of advice on things that we wouldn't have known about if we'd taken it on ourselves (driving distances and when to stop overnight, road conditions etc). The road map was very useful, as was the pre-tour information provided. The rep we met in Windhoek was friendly, polite and provided a list of numbers for us to contact if there were any problems - they didn't have too much to do though, as the pre-tour pack was extensive enough that we really didn't have many questions, but we were left feeling that we were in capable hands should anything go wrong (which it didn't).
Everything went very smoothly; airport transfers, hire car pick up, accommodation etc. Our list of what we wanted to see was superbly met by the itinerary provided. I think the value for money was good - it certainly felt like it to us. Nothing at all to complain about and we're more than happy to recommend Nature Travel Namibia to anyone thinking to visit this wonderful country.

Amazing and expertly planned safari!
Nature Travel Namibia arranged a fantastic 14 day private safari for us in Namibia, Botswana, and Zimbabwe. They worked closely with us to develop and customize the exact itinerary we wanted and kept it within the price range we proposed. All the lodges they selected for us were beautiful and convenient to the national/safari parks. During the Namibia portion of the trip, we were given a private guide, Wilson Garafa, who was not only incredibly knowledgeable about all the wildlife we saw, but also about ecology, geology, and history as well. He was very attentive to our comfort and ensured everything went smoothly. It really was just an amazing experience. I highly recommend Nature Travel Namibia if you’re planning a safari in southern Africa.

Simply the best! Petra Joell was just amazing putting together one of the best trips ever.
We were looking at travelling to Namibia and after doing reviews on operators and itineraries I realised that most are for group tours, scheduled stops, no flexibility and then I came across Nature Travel Namibia. After looking at the reviews I decided to contact them to see and hear what they cld offer us. My agent was Petra Joell, and together we put together a private trip that was at our pace and also included all the places I had been researching and wanted to see that other companies didn’t offer including extra time here and there to relax or do our own thing occasionally. Not one thing went wrong and if it did we didn’t know about it…just seamless travel.
At one location early in our trip I mentioned that I didn’t eat fish and was lactose intolerant. Normally, I work around this and don’t have a problem. Well from then on, every resort made sure my meals met my needs. I just couldn’t believe the little touches Petra did including organising a cake for my birthday..in fact 3 at different places on the day!
Petra was always prompt in replying, offering suggestions, making changes and put together our 3 wk holiday through Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe.
She then gave us the best guide ever Stewart who was an encyclopaedia on animals (including elephant tracking which we did) and birds. Initially, we were not that interested in birds but we certainly became enthralled with his knowledge and stories about the animals and birds. I just love meeting local people and Petra ensured I had ample time to go to villages and meet the locals which I simply loved. Even saw the big 5.
As this trip was to be paid overseas, we were a little nervous as you hear all these awful stories but that was not the case here. All payments went through correctly and we received all that was promised…5 star too!
I have travelled to over 90 countries and on many tours but this was the best organised, gave value for money and lived up to be the best trip ever. My partner has even said we are going back to africa. Here I was worried that he wouldn’t love it as I did but he absolutely loved it and tells everyone we are going back to africa next year.
I cldnt recommend this company more highly and wld happy to talk to anyone if they had any question.
Thank you Nature Travel Namibia…best trip ever !

Very prompt and clear in communication
Great expertise with Nature travel Namibia - we booked our Kruger trip with them. Nadine was really helpful and prompt, whenever needed; and catered to our need considering we had a 5 year old kid with us.

Amazing
We are a family of four, with two daughters (13 and 10 years old). Our package was a 14-day Namibia - Chobe - Vic Falls tour with a guide, staying in mid-range lodgings.
Our expectations for this trip were high, and it is safe to say that they were well exceeded. Everything was amazing, well planned, with truly astonishing places and experiences.
But the best part of all was our guide, Stewart. He is really awesome, so knowledgeable, and great for conversations. Without him, the trip would have still been fine, but because of him, it was extremely great.

Amazing activities and romantic hotels!
I spent 11 amazing days in Namibia with my girlfriend doing incredible activities and stayed in very nice hotels with all the comforts one can ask for and amazing views. Each activity/hotel was organized by Nature Travel Namibia well in advance and for a fair price overall.
My contact person for NTN was Pepi Kern. She was very professional and helpful in tailoring our itinerary in Namibia according to our requests and informing us about cool activities to do once there.
My tour guide for the whole trip was David Mlambo. He was very knowledgeable about the nature and the history of Namibia. He was always keen and reliable at driving us to so many amazing places and picking us up from the activities we did - we really appreciated that.
I would definitely recommend exploring Namibia with NTN! :)

Great planning, easy contact, excellent selection of lodges and activities, helpful and friendly.
We have started planning of our self-drive trip to Namibia one year in advance. Petra came with some proposals and adopted them to our expectations. At the end we got a perfect plan with all the bookings of lodges and activities. The trip itinerary was uploaded in the app, which was very helpful. In Windhoek we were picked up by Chantelle. She made an excellent meet&greet in a nice cafe in the capital. She was full of positive energy and not only showed us how to change a wheel, but also how to feel a tank while respecting local customs and drove us to a supermarket to buy some supplies for the road.
The tip was flawless! Selection of lodges and activities was excellent, with a good pace. We did not waste any minute and and the same time we were not too overloaded with driving and activities.
We will definitely plan another trip with the Nature Travel.

everything perfect
we spent 6 nights across etosha (mokuti lodge is fantastic), swakopmund and sossusvlei (desert grace gondwana collection is worth the travel to get there in the middle of the desert). food variety was everywhere good and quality high, of course mainly based on meat. our guide, Buzzy, have been always with us, supporting and driving us through the activities. safari in etosha was incredible, thanks to Buzzy’s expertise we have seen 4 of the big five (many elephants, lions, one leopard, rinos) together with many zebras, giraffes, hyenas, jackals, antelopes,… we really enjoyed Sandy Horizon Sandwich Harbour 4x4 Tour where we have been taken through the dunes where the Atlantic touches the desert in an incredible landscape. we finally climbed the highest dune in the namib desert (big daddy), quite tough but it is worth doing it once you are on the top, and visited dead vlei, another incredible experience. everything was arranged perfectly, and also an accident incurred to our car on the way to the airport has been managed properly. 100% happy with Nature Travel Namibia, a special thanks to Buzzy and Petra.
