Travel reviews by Mr D & Mrs G - St Albans
Namibia
On this trip, I visited Namibia between 22-May-2009 and 8-Jun-2009 and I travelled with 1 other person.
A wonderful & memorable trip.
It's hard to say what's so great about Namibia, for me it was the sheer isolation and desertedness of the place (especially coming from London), driving for hours and maybe seeing 1 or 2 other cars. Lovely, friendly people. Guides who were all really passionate about what they do and their country, and proud of their country and their way of life.
An amazingly clean country, everyone really cared about keeping it clean and tidy, preserving their resources, looking after the wildlife, the environment etc.
Suggestions for improvements:
Your brochure is excellent compared to others I've used.
The only thing missing is an estimated price for the accommodation. This would be really helpful so we know whether we're choosing the most expensive or cheapest accommodation, and therefore, if for example, your quote is a bit high, we could've looked at choosing accommodation that might've brought the price down a little.
