My Oct 2008 trip

Namibia between 22 Oct 2008 and 7 Nov 2008

Trip rating: Good
"Expert Africa team were extemley helpful at all times.

However I do disagree that the gravel roads can be used by normal car. We had a 2x4 and struggled at points, I personally could not drive on some of it. I would advise people paid the extra for 4x4.

Dora Nowas & soussi Dunne Lodge said that only 'brave' people do not use 4x4. If I were advising simeone else I would advise they flew to the main attraction & did the activities or hired a driver.

African people are wonderful.

Suggestions for improvement:

I would suggest you promote the flying to destinations & not using ordinary cars"

"Ongava Lodge review"

2 nights Arrived 28 Oct 2008
"It was an excellent place to stay but people should be made awre that there are many steep steps to climb befre you reach the reception and lodges.

A second comfortable chair & minibar in the rooms would make it more comfortable when you retire for the evening."

2 nights Arrived 30 Oct 2008
"This was a good place to stay but could have been signposted better once leaving the main road as it is quite a way up. It was good to see the desert elephants.

There are a lot of steps to reach reception & the restaurant."
