"Superb holiday"
I visited Namibia between 30 May 2008 and 20 Jun 2008
"One of the best holidays we have ever had - superb accommodation in a series of wonderful locations. Well organised by Expert Africa.
We will go back one day but with a 4WD this time (not for the extra traction but for comfort in bouncing across the ruts), There was a wonderful feeling of 'adventure' about the trip without it being too scary!
Suggestions for improvement:
Not really apart from my comments on 4WD carhire above. We enjoyed designing our own itinerary but also found your suggested tours helpful in this process." Read full review: 21 nights in Africa; 16 on a Namibia trip

I visited Namibia between 23 May 2008 and 24 Jun 2008
"Very well planned and worked out. Overall, the game viewing in the Caprivi strip was not quite as rewarding as our trip to the Okavango delta a couple of years ago. Next time, we might want to combine the two countries."

"Please can we go again"
I visited Namibia between 9 May 2008 and 25 May 2008
"We didn't want to come home, we want to go back, we already have ideas and have started saving - what more can we say.
Things we'd do differently - put in a three night stay somewhere. We were really please only to be staying one night in Swakopmund, it was definitely out of season.
Something to consider is to take Air Nambia flight home to Europe (Frankfurt) and do hop to UK from there rather than Windhoek/Jo'burg/Home. Gives a longer last day and the Air Namibia flight was nicer.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
We found the service very personal - it took sometime to sort but was well worth it in the end - this is one of your strengths as a company because you do care where your customers go, don't lose sight of this." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 14 on a Namibia trip

I visited Namibia between 3 May 2008 and 22 May 2008
"We had a wonderful time in Namibia. The country is amazing and so are the inhabitants.
We found it very safe and stayed in amazing places there. We will definitely go back when we get the chance.
We particularly appreciated the info pack given and Chris' guide book which we ended up using most of the time." Read full review: 19 nights in Africa; 16 on a Namibia trip
