Travel reviews by Mr R & Mrs J Pygmy Falcon
Wonderful
On this trip, I visited Namibia between 24-Jul-2008 and 12-Aug-2008 and I travelled with 1 other person.
The trip was wonderful, everything worked like clockwork and all the arrangements were perfect.
Namibia was a beautiful country and the weather was perfect, much warmer than we expected, though cold at night, and no clouds at all for the entire trip, fog at Swakopmund on one day. The driving on tarmac was easy and on gravel we felt that 4x4 made the driving much more pleasant, others suffered with ordinary hire cars.
We ventured into towns, shops and garages and felt quite comfortable, only at Windhoek was there more of an edge with quite a lot of youths hanging about in the evening. The standard of accommodation and food was higher than we had expected, the scenery outstanding and the game in Etosha more widespread than we had expected.
