Reviews of safaris to NamibRand Nature Reserve

"It was a brilliant trip. It did all we had hoped for and more. We loved the country; the space; the staggering scenery; the friendliness of the people; the professionalism of the guides. It will be a holiday to remember for a long long time." Read full review: 20 nights in Africa; 17 on a Namibia trip

"Incredible, we would certainly come back to Namibia and would be very happy to recommend expert africa to arrange any kind of trip through this part of the world.

Thankyou very much, we are very grateful for the best holiday!" Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 14 on a Namibia trip

"Excellent itinerary and choice of lodges that matched well with our requirements - we appreciated that. Very helpful route map and pack provided ahead of the trip. I have absolutely no complaints on any aspect of the trip and would thoroughly recommend it again! Thank you to Expert Africa.

In the end we did not choose the coastal route up to Torras Bay as most travelers we talked with suggested it got a bit monotonous after a well - but the road was good and outside of rain I think this would have been fine. The worst road during our trip was from Sesriem to Swakop - gravel road very bumpy in parts." Read full review: 10 nights in Africa; 9 on a Namibia trip

"I was very pleased that the experience I wanted to share with my friends ,was exactly what I wanted. Only first night and the Tok tokkie were a disappointment.

We all really enjoyed the trip. It is a wonderful, safe, country and the people delightful. This is what we most enjoyed, the contact with such lovely friendly people and being driven across amazing landscapes and then staying in beautiful , unusual camps.

Also, the pace was right. Lots of exciting viewing but lots of down time too." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 14 on a Namibia trip

"A fantastic trip which we both thoroughly enjoyed - it completely exceeded our expectations.

Very well organised and great lodges. Highlights were Wolwedans, Safarihoek and the Scenic Air flights - but everything else was very very good. We were pleased with our route - we met some people who had done Etosha first (so seen all the animals) and where as we were so excited to see the desert elephants they were rather blasé having seen so much wildlife already.

We found the countryside amazing, in particular the desert, and in most case the guides were extremely knowledgeable, friendly and good to be with. It was good that most of the our "drives" were just us and a guide and not a jeep full of people.

The service everywhere was excellent - and staff were lovely and very very welcoming.

Thanks to Sabina for organising a great trip to a fantastic country - we are already saying that we need to go back…..

I would happily recommend Expert Africa to friends" Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 13 on a Namibia trip

"We much enjoyed the trip and would recommend a self drive holiday in Namibia

One small point: we did not realise Wilderness Safaris at Windhoek Airport would have helped us with check in and security on our way home. If we had, we would have avoided horrendous queues" Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 14 on a Namibia trip

"Considering this trip we saw a lot but I would do some things differently. I would have flown to Desert Rhino and maybe added one of the Skeleton Coast Camps like Hoanib or Serra Cafema which would also require a fly in. Or maybe I would have omitted Desert Rhino and just done another night at Ongava where we saw lots of Rhinos.

We would have missed the heritage petroglyphs but have already seen San rock art in Zimbabwe so maybe I think this would have been the superior choice. Then we could have driven to Etosha from either Swakopmund or Windhoek (Better option) and saved money on renting a less robust car.

Also Doro Nawas was totally not worth the money or effort.

Favorites were Soussesvlei Desert Lodge, Sandwich Bay Tour, and Ongava Lodge." Read full review: 22 nights in Africa; 15 on a Namibia trip
