My May 2022 trip

Namibia between 19 May 2022 and 7 Jun 2022

Trip rating: Excellent
"The trip was great. I really enjoyed the logistic and how the trip like this is arranged with a sort of self drive but also guided excursions.
Thank you to Tom tips we enjoyed a lot exploring this Country.

The only remark I have it’s maybe preparing people a bit more because the streets are really bad"

Kalahari Anib Lodge

Kalahari Anib Lodge

"Kalahari Anib Lodge review"

1 night Arrived 21 May 2022
"The service was very friendly. The Lodge is perfectly located in an area just at the beginnig of the Kalahari with great opportunity to spot animals and possiblity to walk and bike.

The sundowner excurison was fantastic we spotted a lot and the colors of the sunset was great.

Accomodation is rather simple but very functional and nice rustic style.

We like the dininig area and the buffet dinner had a very high quality and plenty of choise.

The bar is also a great spot for a lunch and for a post dinner drink in front of the fireplace."

"Fish River Lodge review"

2 nights Arrived 22 May 2022
"Absolutely fantastic place. The lodge is located at the rim of the canyon with plenty of activities from biking to hiking around alone. We did the full day excursion to the canyon and was really great.

Guides are very professional and prepared as well as the staff super friendly.

We had 2 dinners and one package lunch. Both dinners were great. Special thank you to Alexander and Vilhem."

Desert Horse Inn

Desert Horse Inn

"Desert Horse Inn review"

2 nights Arrived 24 May 2022
"Deset Horse Inn is located in a very beautiful area and it's a pleasure to have your own cottage and to wake up in the morning with such a private view from your veranda.

The cottages are big and well equipped you have the real feeling of a Ranch.

Lot of points to the restaurant. Great Service very varied a la cart menu that changes every day and also good list of wines. ladies cooking are local.

We had a great sundawner with Ricky."

Camp Kipwe

Camp Kipwe

"Camp Kipwe review"

2 nights Arrived 30 May 2022
"The Camp Kipwe was our second best stay during the trip. The lodge is totally hidden in the rocks and it is not possible to spot it from the street. It is melted in the nature.

The rooms are in stone and wood and the bathrooms are external. The Lobby and the restaurant are great in terms of food and atmosphere. There is a fantastic view point were to enjoy a drink during sunset.

Mat was the greatest guide. We went for the excursion to spot the Desert adapted elephants and it was amazing."

Safarihoek Lodge

Safarihoek Lodge

"Safarihoek Lodge review"

2 nights Arrived 1 Jun 2022
"It was the best safari experience of the trip. The park is private and during the safari it is possible to go anywhere in the park without restrictions.

Spotted great wildlife. The lodge itself is rather modern very different from the classics lodges. Our room was super with view to the Pond and shower outside. The common areas could be improved in terms of decorations.

Service is very good but I think there is room for improvement for the food."

Villa Mushara

Villa Mushara

"Villa Mushara review"

2 nights Arrived 3 Jun 2022
"Mushara was a great stay. Absolutely outstanding property. We were so lucky to get the Villa which left us speechless.

Service is very high level, breakfast with high-quality items and dinner also was varied and really good.

Mika the responsible manager was our reference point there and he is the most helpful and professional.

On the other hand, the safari was quite bad, we didn’t enjoy the fact of traveling back and forward to the park and also the prices. On top of this. We couldn’t spot any animal."

My Feb 2018 trip

Zimbabwe and 1 other country between 10 Feb 2018 and 15 Feb 2018

Trip rating: Excellent
"Our trip was fantastic. Every day I was left speechless about the wildlife we saw.

It is not the first time I'm going on a Safari but this is the best you can get. We were def very lucky to see all this and it was not expected.

I'm so thankful to Expert Africa for the advice and the organization. And I hope I can arrange a new trip soon with their support.

Richard my consultant has been very good in answering all my question and understanding my requests.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

Not much to improve guys. Just the flights to camps maybe.

I know many people afraid to flight so good to prepare them upfront about to way to move from one camp to an other one."

Little Kwara

Little Kwara (Not currently featured by Expert Africa)

"Little Kwara review"

3 nights Arrived 12 Feb 2018
"Little Kwara is the perfect location to experience a great Safari. It is simple and small lodge with nice people and good comforts.

The Safari is the highlight here. It was just amazing experience. The food is great and the team always happy to help.

It is a good compromise to stay in the nature cos it is not a luxury lodge exactly what we were looking for.

The rooms are very quite far from each other and with great view."
