Amazing Experience
5/5

My wife and I had a truly amazing experience on our safari we booked through Nature Travel Namibia. It started in the planning process working with Amber. She was very easy to work with in putting together our tour, and was always prompt in responding to messages as well as clear in all communications. Once in Namibia, our guide Wilson made the entire experience incredible. Wilson was extensively knowledgeable about local flora/fauna, geology, and history which made the experience enriching. On top of that, he was very professional yet friendly and personable which made the trip even more rewarding. Additionally, we are incredibly grateful to Amber, Wilson, and Joram for helping navigate our lost luggage and coordinating a meetup to get it back! We had a truly amazing trip to Namibia!

Excellent!
5/5

What an experience!
Petra was great helping me to organise the whole trip, thank you for her patience with me because I know I’ve been challenging sometimes! ☺️ She was able to book great lodges and activities around Namibia with the right way for me (anti clock wise).
And of course thank you to the phenomenal David, our guide. His huge experience, knowledge of nature and kindness made this private trip just awesome for me and my wife.
Definitely we recommend NTN

Reliable, responsive and efficient
5/5

We did an 18-days self-drive safari of Namibia with an extension to Victoria Falls fully organized by Nature Travel Namibia. It has been a wonderful experience! It was our first time in an African country and we were unsure about all the long distance driving to do on our own, but following the suggestions of our contact person Nadine Jones of NTN we felt comfortable and safe all the time during the trip. We could design the itinerary as we wanted, taking a slow pace and staying more days at each location instead of travelling every day, and we did not miss any of the places we wanted to visit. The selection of lodges and hotels was perfect, in stunning locations and excellent quality. All was as advertised and promised, and NTN was always quickly responding to our emails and requests. We also asked for a couple of changes during the travel itself and they were kindly and efficiently accommodated. I will not hesitate to use NTN for future holiday plans.

everything perfect
5/5

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.

Great planning, easy contact, excellent selection of lodges and activities, helpful and friendly.
5/5

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.

Amazing activities and romantic hotels!
5/5

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! :)

Amazing
5/5

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.

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.

Simply the best! Petra Joell was just amazing putting together one of the best trips ever.
5/5

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 !

Amazing and expertly planned safari!
5/5

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.
