Namibia May 2009

Namibia between 6 May 2009 and 15 May 2009

Trip rating: Excellent
"Namibia was stunning and the perfect destination for a fly-drive. Due to the heavy rains that they have experienced this year we feel that a 2wd car is insufficent for some of the gravel roads and would recommend vehicles with more clearance or a 4x4.

We have no hesitation in recommending Namibia as wonderful destination

Suggestions for improvements:

Keep the good work up."

"Desert Homestead review"

2 nights Arrived 7 May 2009
"The staff were very friendly and the rooms clean. Affordable trips. The communal powerpoint to charge equipment was inconveinent. We would have liked a socket in the room.

Overall we had two lovely nights stay."

Rostock Ritz

"Rostock Ritz review"

1 night Arrived 9 May 2009
"Very friendly reception, good food and plenty of information on walks around the property.

This room was a little dingy, we felt due the colour of paint used, but we admired the architecture.

Great views from the room and terrace. Food and drink very reasonably priced.

We enjoyed a very nice un-guided 2.5km walk across the plains."

Erongo Wilderness Lodge

"Erongo Wilderness Lodge review"

1 night Arrived 10 May 2009
"The guides on the walks were very knowledgable.

The food was exceptional.

This resort really did tick all of the boxes, however if being separated from nature by canvass is too close for comfort this is not the place for you."

Ongava Lodge

"Ongava Lodge review"

2 nights Arrived 11 May 2009
"The room was gorgeous with a fantastic view.

The sundowner game drive was worth every penny.

The food was fine, but not as good as at budget lodges that we stayed at.

Watching the waterholes while eating breakfast and dinner was a real highlight."

"Waterberg Camp review"

1 night Arrived 13 May 2009
"We were pleasantly surprised by this government run facility.

The staff were very friendly and the room was basic but very clean.

The walks surrounding the camp were pleasant and the walk to the top of the escarpment is a must."
