Namibia between 4 Jul 2011 and 23 Jul 2011

Trip rating: Excellent
"We had a great time in Namibia. There were so many highlights - but if we had to choose our favorite places they would be Etosha and Mundulea.

We wish we could have stayed longer.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

I recommend a vehicle with high ground clearance to anyone visiting Namibia."

Desert Camp

"Desert Camp"

2 nights Arrived 5 Jul 2011
"Desert Camp is in a great location. When we stayed there it was windy at night and it was very loud in the tent.

I'd say if you are a light sleeper you might want to consider a different place to sleep."

Grootberg Lodge

Grootberg Lodge

"Grootberg Lodge review"

2 nights Arrived 11 Jul 2011
"Grootberg Lodge is in a stunning location and the rooms have an incredible view. We went on a drive to find rhino, but we could not find them. Our guides were great and they found fresh tracks - but the mother rhino and her calf managed to give us the slip.

We did see two leopard, several giraffe, an African wildcat, and many other animals - it was a really great experience despite not seeing a rhino. We also went on a Himba trip which was very interesting and again our guides were great.

We are vegetarians and were served excellent meals on both night of our stay."

Okaukuejo Camp

Okaukuejo Camp

"Okaukuejo Camp review"

2 nights Arrived 13 Jul 2011
"Camp is in a great location inside Etosha.

Two nights in a row we saw elephant and rhino at the water hole. The water hole area gets a big crowd and can be loud due to inconsiderate people.

Room was clean and comfortable."

Halali Camp

"Halali Camp review"

3 nights Arrived 15 Jul 2011
"Halali is inside Etosha and therefore is in a great location.

Early one morning (around 5:30) we saw two rhino at the water hole. Water hole did not seem to attract as many animals as Okaukuejo, but was much quieter and has much better ambiance."

Mundulea Reserve

Mundulea Reserve

"Mundulea Reserve review"

3 nights Arrived 18 Jul 2011
"Mundulea is fantastic.

After being in the car for much of our trip it was great to get out and walk. Bruno is a fantastic guide and host - we learned so much about the animals at the reserve and saw some animals we had not seen before. The food was amazing.

Mundulea was definitely a highlight of our trip and we really wished we could stay longer."

Okonjima Bush Camp

Okonjima Bush Camp

"Okonjima Bush Camp review"

2 nights Arrived 21 Jul 2011
"We went on drives to track leopard, cheetah and hyena. The leopard, cheetah and hyena wear transmitters and our guides found them every time.

The animals we tracked did not seem to mind our presence at all - so to that extent it is nothing like seeing one of these animals in the wild - but it is still interesting to get close to them."
