My 2015 trip

On this trip, I visited Namibia between 8-Dec-2015 and 29-Dec-2015 and I travelled with 1 other person.

Absolutely fine, no particular problems, the weather this time was mixed with more than usual in the way of stormy and wet days, which meant ETOSHA had fewer animals around.

My Dec 2014 trip

On this trip, I visited Namibia between 9-Dec-2014 and 30-Dec-2014 and I travelled with 1 other person.

Having to arrange this trip to facilitate the places we wanted to stay did cause me think about the extra driving i was taking on but in the end everything worked out fine.

As usual many thanks to Tracy (Sabine for Etango) for all their help.

My Nov 2013 trip

On this trip, I visited Namibia between 5-Nov-2013 and 23-Nov-2013 and I travelled with 1 other person.

Thanks to Tracy's sterling effort it was very good trip and up to Expert Africa usual high standard of organisation.

Regret not being able to have used SAA this time, we are not fans of BA.

My Dec 2012 trip

On this trip, I visited Namibia between 11-Dec-2012 and 29-Dec-2012 and I travelled with 1 other person.

On our return to Namibia after three years it was going to be interesting to see whether anything very much had changed and
we found the real friendlyness of people was still there ,apart from more police speed and document checks!

Overall we really enjoyed our umpteenth trip, my first time driving a 4x4 was a plus.

Well done Expert Africa once again.

My Nov 2009 trip

On this trip, I visited Namibia between 8-Nov-2009 and 24-Nov-2009 and I travelled with 1 other person.

Because of our fairly late booking some of our first choices were unavailable and thus we had to compromise and shorten our trip this year. Prices in some cases seem to have risen significantly. Some parts of Namibia are now becoming overdeveloped particularly just outside ETOSHA. That said there is still plenty of space to go round!

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

We have always been very happy with the service all the staff at Expert Africa have provided to us over many years now and long may it continue.
