"Namibia is a vast beautiful country, visit it"
I visited Namibia between 29 Mar 2013 and 14 Apr 2013
"First visit to Namibia, full of lovely friendly people, stunning landscapes and one startled honey badger.
The vast skies of day and night were breathtaking and we have returned with great memories and four personalised carved nut key rings.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
Some of the travelling times between rest camps were longer than we anticipated. We stumbled on a couple of good places to stop for lunch / breaks but if these had been pointed out beforehand it would have made the journey a little smoother."

"My Jan 2013 trip"
I visited Namibia between 27 Jan 2013 and 4 Feb 2013
"We thoroughly enjoyed our trip. It was a well constructed itinerary which drew extensively upon Angela Griffin's expertise and local knowledge particularly in respect of travelling times and distances involved.
During the planning phase Angela was most patient in answering our often repeated queries and modifications to our plans. We have no hesitation in recommending Expert Africa to all.

"My Dec 2012 trip"
I visited Namibia between 11 Dec 2012 and 29 Dec 2012
"On our return to Namibia after three years it was going to be interesting to see whether anything very much had changed and
we found the real friendlyness of people was still there ,apart from more police speed and document checks!
Overall we really enjoyed our umpteenth trip, my first time driving a 4x4 was a plus.
Well done Expert Africa once again." Read full review: 18 nights in Africa; 12 on a Namibia trip

"Absolutely fantastic trip"
I visited Namibia and 2 other countries between 10 Dec 2012 and 2 Jan 2013
"We had an absolutely superb trip and our family will treasure our memories forever.
We thought it was a very well balance trip, with organised activities balanced with independent travel. Renting a car was a fabulous way to travel around Namibia with a young family and the trip was very well planned with the travel distances very manageable and clear The detailed organisation by Maruska and Saskia made for a seamless and very enjoyable holiday.
Our time with the Bushmen was one of our highlights so thanks for the suggestion and organisation of this part of our adventure.

At times it would have been nice to know if we were going to be travelling on gravel or sealed roads and the map provided didn't seem to differentiate between the two." Read full review: 23 nights in Africa; 13 on a Namibia trip

"My Dec 2012 trip"
I visited Namibia between 9 Dec 2012 and 22 Dec 2012
"An excellent experience. I felt Angela had given me all the information and advice I needed and it meant the distances travelled weren't too far in one go, the description of all the accomodation had been accurate and we felt we had back up if needed. The emails to let us know about flight times etc made us feel someone was looking after us all through the holiday.The tyre insurance worked perfectly and it was good to have a form to be signed to check the hire car back in with.
We loved all the places you recommended, Turnstone tours were perfect, all the arrangements were in place. We would not hesitate in using Expert Africa again.
Thank you for a wonderful experience in which we feel we learnt a lot about Namibia and ourselves." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 11 on a Namibia trip

One of our favourite lodges in Namibia for many years, we were very sad when Erongo Wilderness Lodge closed.
Mundulea Reserve
The rustic Mundulea Bushcamp offers superb and varied walking in the company of a top-class guide on a reserve that features many endangered or endemic species.
Frans Indongo Lodge
For a chance to spot some rare game species, Frans Indongo Lodge is an ideal stop over between Windhoek and the Etosha National Park.
Ai Aiba Lodge
A convenient stop between Etosha and Windhoek,.Ai Aiba is a simple and relatively large lodge with plenty of great walking, and some spectacular San rock art.
Elegant Farmstead
A stylish and peaceful lodge, The Elegant Farmstead is a relaxing and comfortable place to break the journey between Windhoek and Etosha.
Ghaub Guest Farm
Ghaub Guestfarm is a charming guestfarm on the site of an old mission station, in an unusually verdant patch of Namibia.
Roy's Restcamp
For an economic, rustic option Roy's Restcamp makes for a convenient overnight stop when travelling to Bushmanland or the Caprivi Strip.
