"Namibia Holiday May 2012"
I visited Namibia between 21 Apr 2012 and 13 May 2012
"Very satisfactory really does do justice to the experience. The scenery, the lodges, the people, the wildlife, the tours, the food; it was all wonderful!
Sabina was very patient, efficient and helpful throughout the booking process. Everything was well explained and ran like clockwork. Well done Expert Africa and thank you." Read full review: 22 nights in Africa; 7 on a Namibia trip

"My Apr 2012 trip"
I visited Namibia between 16 Apr 2012 and 21 Apr 2012
"Our trip was more than good. I cannot say more. We have just arrived back home this very early morning. But we can say that if we're going on another trip to lovely Namibia, or to some other country in Africa, we would like to let you arrange the details for it. We are used to handle our own arrangements, but we do realize that it's worth it all letting you do it, making it much more pleasant for us to take care about our on-spot-experiences.
We also went to Cape Town, but that was our own arrangement, although we were so lucky to have a free apartment in Vredehoek for two weeks. Things have changed there since I was there 40 years back as a very young sailor!
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

"A memorable holiday"
I visited Namibia between 8 Feb 2012 and 2 Mar 2012
"It was outstanding.
Very well organized - thank you Sabina for all your hard work, care and suggestions. We will be back in the near future and hope that Sabina will look after us for a third time.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
Get another car-hire firm or make it clear that they must deliver what is promised and payed for - we got only one spare wheel though payed for two.
But that is a minor complaint compared to our overall appreciation and enjoyment. Thank you" Read full review: 23 nights in Africa; 17 on a Namibia trip

"Enjoyable trip"
I visited Namibia between 3 Jan 2012 and 27 Jan 2012
"Namibia is a beautiful country and we recommend a trip there!
We love the vastness and openess of the place and the scenery can be breathtaking at times Take a trip up any riverbed and in particular the Swakop River and sit back and be prepared to be blown away by mother nature. Even driving along some of its awful roads is great fun (you must have the right vehicle though!) but the tarred roads we found to be in very good conditon with very little traffic. Put on a CD and enjoy the drive!! You never know what you will see along the way!
Namibia is very expensive though, a complaint made by nearly every other tourist we chatted to and even the localsfeel that we tourists are ripped off with very high charges. It is something the Namibian Tourist Board needs to seriously look at. Not everyone who would love to go there is wealthy!

"a wonderful holiday"
I visited Namibia between 24 Nov 2011 and 10 Dec 2011
"We had the time of our lives in Namibia. We enjoyed it so much that we are planning to go back for my 60th birthday.
Expert Africa - Thank you!!!
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
It would be helpful to have an estimate as to how long it takes to drive between the camps.
Tell people that if they hire the second spare wheel for hire cars that it is not carried externally and luggage space in the boot will be halved so soft bags would be the best luggage and not cases." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 16 on a Namibia trip

"A wonderful trip. Not for the 1st time safari traveler. A contrast to other parts of Africa that we have traveled.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
Please remind travelers that when they are traveling within Etosha National Park that they will have to pay th70 Namibian dollar fee each day that they are in the Park...not just once.
Photographs and a trip diary on Dave's own website showcasing his Namibia holiday
Dave has posted some wonderful photographs from their trip to Namibia, along with a trip diary that makes interesting reading; both of which can be found on his own website. Dave comments that Namibia was a “bucket list” destination for them and he would like to encourage any travellers planning to go there to read about the experiences they had."

"Better than expected"
I visited Namibia between 2 Nov 2011 and 23 Nov 2011
"Very good. People friendly, service excellent on the whole.
Lots of memories of amazing places and events such as picnic on trip to Dunes from Hoodia Lodge. White napkins and chilled wine
Glad we did it. The roads were much better than we expected and the friendliness of the people who looked after us was really lovely. The trip from Hoodia Lodge to the dunes was outstanding and the yummy picnic under a tree with white wine and napkins will be talked about for a long time.
