Trip of a lifetime.
5/5

We had the trip of a lifetime with Nature Travel Namibia. Leading up to the trip, Amber was very responsive and helpful when planning the tour that would work best for us. We were lucky to have the most amazing guide, Wilson, who was so knowledgeable and such a pleasure to have guiding us. The tour allowed us to see the beauty of Namibia and was very well planned. While we covered a lot of ground during our 11-day tour, it never felt rushed and we were able to appreciate and explore each stop along the way. We were so fortunate to have chosen Nature Travel Namibia and are already planning our next trip back to the beautiful country of Namibia!

PERFECT COMMUNICATION
5/5

First of all the 5 DAY TASTE OF ETOSHA seemed to be the exact tour I was looking for and it turned out to be perfect!!
Communication by e-mail with the tour operator went smoothly.
The whole trip was worth its value.
I had the feeling that I could rely on all the information.
Our tour guide was a gentleman and knew what he was talking about!

Your successful trip starts with Nature Travel Namibia.
5/5

Easy to get in touch with, always quick to reply and give to-the-point answers, good suggestions or find solutions.
Having my tailor-made trip set up, with 7 parrots as specific targets was easy-peasy for me. Every step of the way was transparent, no hidden agendas, no extra costs, ... everything was clear as can be.
The trip had 2 segments : northern Namibia and northeast South-Africa and for each part I traveled with local birding guides, very nice people that know their country as the back of their hand. And on top, they are great fun to travel with.
Accomodation was above expectation (even felt a bit out of tune here and there), comfortable car, ... what else could anyone want , besides another trip ?!
Nick and your team, well done ! Until we meet again for a Rock Shandy or an Amarula. And more parrots of course.

Magical from start to end
5/5

We heard about Nature Travel Namibia from friends who were very positive about their experience with them, and we are very happy we followed their advice. The whole trip, from the itinerary to the lodges and tented camped to the activities, were absolutely amazing. Petra really hit the spot with choosing the most magical places to stay! Also, the organizatoon was flawless, and when our plane was delayed with 8hrs, Petra immediately supported with making the necessary arrangements, giving us full piece of mind! We definitely recommend Nature Travel, it was truly a once in a lifetime experience.

Prompt, efficient and well organised.
5/5

Amber from Nature Travel was very responsive and organised our intense agenda to perfection. Delano was a great driver, we felt very comfortable and entertained throughout the entire journey. The properties we stayed were beautiful, with great food and excellent customer service. We truly enjoyed our vacation in Namibia.

Perfect organization
5/5

Me and my wife asked Nature Travel Nambia to organize our 5 days Safari in Nambia and we receieved prompt assistance from Amber. She was very kind since the beginning answering all our questions and requests.
She quickly offered us a satisfying intenerary around Etosha natural park with very well chosen lodges to stay. Everything was perfectly detailed and organized. This organization made us very comfortable ready to enjoy our safari
Arrived in Nambia, we met our tour guide Delano who is a very passionate about nature, animals and his country; we appreciated his passion.
We spent great days "gaming" with him enjoying wild life and chatting about many different subjects. He was super kind with us (and we're sure he is with anyone) .
Based on our experience I'd certainly reccomend Nature Travel Namibia to anyone who needs a perfect organization and prefers to live the experience together with someone local

The trip of a lifetime
5/5

It often feels a little risky doing business with an overseas company, especially if you don’t personally know anybody who has used them, but we were so pleased and relieved that we chose Nature Travel Namibia to make the arrangements for our trip to this amazing country. Our entire trip went smoothly and according to plan. If there were any hitches, we certainly weren’t aware of them. From the first email we sent to the last, Amber Lynne was professional, helpful and very prompt with her investigations on our behalf. She asked all the right questions of us (even when she knew it was going to lead to more work for her) and answered our questions as quickly as she could. She was a pleasure to deal with. We were very happy with the standard of the accommodation (mid-range), the vehicle (perfect for game viewing and in great condition) and, as you’ll read soon, our guide.

From our experience, travelling in Namibia with a private guide is the way to go. If you can scrape together the budget to do it this way, you won't regret it. The guide does all the hard work (and the driving, which is a big deal) and shoulders the stress while you get to sit back and simply enjoy your holiday. The guide knows where to find the best lookout points, the best places to eat (or just to have a stop) and the best game viewing spots. If they know what they are doing, they will quickly figure out your interests, point out the things they know you will want to see on your travels and tell you all sorts of interesting things along the way. Our guide was Joram, and he was great. Nothing we wanted to see or do was too much trouble for him and he was a crucial part of what made this trip so fantastic.

Our tour was based on the 11-day Classic Namibia (extended) safari on the Nature Travel Namibia website with a couple of extra days tagged on. We’d originally looked at the 8-day safari, but we were all pleased we decided on the longer one. The distances between places are vast, so to be able to spend a bit more time in each area is well worth it. We had read a warning about luggage being delayed going into Windhoek and that is exactly what happened to us (and several other people we spoke to). We had already decided to spend a day in Windhoek prior to starting our safari to get over our jet lag a bit, and when our luggage didn't arrive, we were very glad we did.

Namibia is a country I’d been wanting to go to for decades, so I had very high expectations. Well, this holiday exceeded those expectations. It honestly was the trip of a lifetime for our family of four adults, and Nature Travel Namibia deserves the credit for making it so. I can't recommend them highly enough.

Highly recommend Nature Travel
5/5

This was our first trip to Africa, and we are beyond happy we selected Nature Travel Namibia. For 10 months, we worked with Nicolette who provided prompt answers to a myriad of questions and guided us to great options. We had never met but we feel that she understand implicitly what we were looking for. We were paired with private guide Joram Matenhese who was absolutely tops! We spent a little over two weeks with him in Namibia and learned so much about nature, the complex cultural and political dynamics between people and animals, and the best places to get coffee and snacks along the way. He is also an amazing expert birder (he knows literally every bird from sight and sound) and knows all the best places and times to see wildlife. It also helped that it seemed like everyone we met in Namibia knows and likes him—from lodge staff to national park gatekeepers to restaurant staff. We felt like VIP traveling with him. Also, we love all natural things—from little to large—and it was a pleasure to be with him reveling in insects, reptiles, mammals, geology, and flora. If we had traveled alone on a self-guided tour, we would have missed so much and been too preoccupied to enjoy the experience. Regarding the lodges, every place we stayed was comfortable, safe, clean, friendly, and well situated within nature. Memorable highlights were hiking Big Daddy, seeing the dunes meet the ocean in Sandwich Harbour, the Living Deserts guided tour of reptiles and insects in Swakopmund, seeing wildlife in Etosha during the dry season, birdwatching in the Caprivi, and taking a helicopter tour of Victoria Falls. We are going to cherish the experience for the rest of our lives, and we are so fortunate to work with this company and be in the great hands of Nicolette and Joram!

Professional service always
5/5

I want to thank Nature Travel Namibia for the wonderful trip we had in September 2023.
NTN is an extremely professional company and the best part is how quickly they will respond every time you contact them.
Thank you Pepi - you are a star.
We went on a private trip, our guide was Sebastian Wrede - whose knowledge, punctuality and enthusiasm was exceptional.
No complains too about the lodges where NTN put us up, the extra sightseeing tours they arranged and the car they provided - simply cannot fault anything in the holiday.
Nature Travel Namibia made us feel safe and cared for always.
Thank you once again - Pepi, Sebastian and Nikita !
