"Namutoni Camp review"
We thought that we were staying on a dinner, bed and breakfast basis but it turned out that lunch was included too. Unfortunately nobody told us this! Also, nobody told us to book a table for dinner - it turns out this is a must if you want to sit inside (which you probably do in July/August as it gets pretty cold once the sun has set). The food itself was very good - the first night was a buffet, the second night was a set menu (with a choice of three main courses). Breakfast here was very good but it can get a bit busy and there isn't much space inside.
The waterholes in the Namutoni area are very busy, for us Klein Namutoni and Chudop were particularly fruitful. Dik-dik Drive (unlike Rhino & Eland drives) was very aptly named!
We did an organised night drive and an early morning drive here - the night drive was excellent with lots of wildlife and an informative guide, the morning drive was disappointingly quiet but it was very, very cold. Unfortunately, though, we were the only guests and our guide didn't seem very interested." See all these reviews: 20n in Namibia

The drinking pool seems to attract less animals all of the time (certainly compared to Okaukuejo's) but there are great other pools in the area. The night drive was excellent." See all these reviews: 17n in Namibia; 2n in Botswana; 2n in Zambia

"Namutoni Restcamp review"
No problems with the all inclusive concept of meals , although not as good as some of the private lodges with d'hote menu was quite acceptable . The Camp was quite empty so the service was fine.
Due to heavy rains the park was flooded in certain areas and some roads had been shut by the park authorities. This did stop not some good sightings LIon Hyena, Eland especially around the Chudop waterhole area. The Fischers pan drive was great for Zebra, Giraffe , Wildebeest, Warthog, Gemsbok. No elephants as they had all gone north." See all these reviews: 9n in Namibia; 4n in Botswana
