Namibia: reviews from our travellers
Unedited reviews written by our most recent Namibia travellers
"My Dec 2016 trip"
If Planet Earth II has not convinced you to visit then you should go anyway as it has much more to offer than what was shown in the short time that the BBC allotted to the Namib desert.
If you are looking for something totally different look no further." Read full review: 19 nights in Africa; 18 on a Namibia trip
"My Dec 2016 trip"
We will return again! A great family holiday." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 11 on a Namibia trip
"My Nov 2016 trip"
Namibia is beyond spectacular. What additionally impressed us was the attitude of the Namibians to their country and to the environment. Most reassuring to see the efforts being made to sustain the right balance.
The tour planning by Sabina was perfect for us." Read full review: 8 nights in Africa; 8 on a Namibia trip
"Our South Africa & Namibia travels"
Hotel, Lodges and Guesthouses were on the whole excellent. Meals were of a good standard.
Some of the driving was not for the fainthearted! Road surfaces varied from excellent tar roads to poor dirt roads, none impassable! As expected!
We had a wonderful time for our second visit to Namibia, very friendly people. South Africa is equally friendly." Read full review: 19 nights in Africa; 9 on a Namibia trip

The one thing I wished for over and over on the trip was a bit more slack in the plans. There were towns I would have liked to explore, and people I'd have loved to get to know, but we really did not have time. I don't remember it being an option to add in extra time in places, but this would have made the trip more enjoyable for me.
Also, an ATM map and a tip guide would be helpful. But overall, we were very pleased, so thank you." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 10 on a Namibia trip
"November trip to Namibia and Botswana"
Namibia and Botswana are beautiful countries.
We hope to go again and would certainly use Expert Africa." Read full review: 20 nights in Africa; 16 on a Namibia trip
"My Nov 2016 trip"
Despite the lengths of the drives, we found time disappeared due to the changing landscapes. We felt particularly proud to have made the journey around, but the joy of discovering each are and learning so much from the tour guides, enriched the experience.
It will be a holiday to remember for a long time to come." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 10 on a Namibia trip
"12-Nov-2016 to 18-Nov-2016 trip"
"November self-drive trip 2016"
We found the people there so friendly and the level of accommodation was very good, comfortable beds always help! Although it was very hot - 35 deg on average, the dryness means it is not debilitating.
You can also see animals at the waterholes all day long, as well as in the conservancies , not just the morning and evening, making for a day long game viewing everywhere you went. Very pleased with all the help we received - it was nice to have a contact at the airport in Windhoek as well.

"My Nov 2016 trip"
Our initial delay was out of Expert Africa's control.
However, the help provided by Tracy was excellent - starting with late night texts and emails then further phone calls. She arranged alternative accommodation and kept us informed.
Wilderness Safari staff at Windhoek airport, especially Priscilla, were exceptionally helpful in dealing with our car hire problems, then escorting us to our accomodation in Windhoek - Bidvest delayed us so long that it was dark before we left the airport.
Priscilla then ensured that our late arriving luggage was sent on to us." Read full review: 19 nights in Africa; 11 on a Namibia trip
