"Namibia 2011"
I visited Namibia between 23 Jul 2011 and 12 Aug 2011
"Absolutely amazing! Great country, great people, great food, great animals. Lived up to all of our expectations. Would recommend Namibia as the African country to visit - without any reservation at all.
Would love to go again but there might not be as much pampering next time! This year was a special holiday so we splashed out a bit but now we've been once we wouldn't mind a bit of camping another time. The campsites we came across all seemed very safe and well equipped. And the beer was good too!

"Our holiday in Namibia"
I visited Namibia between 17 Jul 2011 and 2 Aug 2011
"We had a wonderful, truly memorable trip. All the accommodation was great, food really enjoyable and activities excellent. We saw and did lots of really interesting things eg kayaking to see the seals, climbing a dune, seeing game, walking trips. One fantastic highlight was sitting at a very quiet waterhole in Etosha, deciding we were about to leave, and then seeing 37 elephants, adults and children, coming in one group, with the matriarch at the back checking on them all! Also, wonderful, spectacular scenery and the sense of space and of people having lived here for so many centuries.
For us, the distances were easy to drive but made for quite long days. Also, we would have liked to meet a few more local people to hear about the country and their experience first hand.

"Satisfactory vist to Namibia"
I visited Namibia between 16 Jul 2011 and 30 Jul 2011
"An excellent trip well arranged and all recomendations were very good. Would use Expert Africa again.
The Toyota Corolla was very satisfactory for this trip, comfortable and economical for three people. A 4wd would have been very nice but probably not worth the extra cost. There were many more 4wd vehicles on the roads than cars however." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 12 on a Namibia trip

"Best holiday - trip of a lifetime"
I visited Namibia between 12 Jul 2011 and 27 Jul 2011
"We had high expectations of Namibia and were never disappointed. The landscapes were vast and varied, the people helpful and friendly and there was so much so see.
The country was so beautiful in so many different ways. Going in winter we saw arid desert, red dunes and flowers everywhere. It was truly breathtaking.
The people are quite reserved but really helpful. All the accomodation and facilities wherever you went were very stylist and spotless.
The driving was a challenge; hard work in some areas, and the distances vast.
We will never forget it.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
We were incredibly impressed by your service, and mentioned your name in many places. We had no problems with any of the arrangements ; all worked well.
Your advice was spot on and literature well laid out and informative. I found it very useful to have a discussion about an option and then be able to look at it on your website and read the comments.
Thank you very much." Read full review: 15 nights in Africa; 13 on a Namibia trip

"We had very specific requirements for our holiday to Namibia as our party had a range of budgets.
We were able to have an excellent holiday which suited all our budgets. Those on limited budgets camped very cheaply in Etosha whilst a little more comfort was available for the others." Read full review: 18 nights in Africa; 8 on a Namibia trip

"Time of our life in Namibia"
I visited Namibia between 4 Jul 2011 and 21 Jul 2011
"We had the time of our life and were overwhelmed by the experience. Every day offered a new highlight and we still debate about what was the best.
We were lucky that Namibia had received a lot of rain this year and Etosha and the Soussouvlei were still flooded, resulting in plenty of wildlife in Soussouvlei and amazing photographs of the Etosha salt pan.

I am more than happy with the service and information received and really enjoyed reading your brochures and Chris`'s guide book, which is superb and in depth." Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 17 on a Namibia trip

"Exceeded expectations"
I visited Namibia between 4 Jul 2011 and 23 Jul 2011
"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.
