Amazing
Namibia between 3 Aug 2018 and 19 Aug 2018
It was organised to perfection and the accommodation was all perfect, amazing considering we didn't think a trip was possible due to most of the accommodation was fully booked.
Etosha was the highlight, it seemed to get better the more time we spent there, but each stop on the trip had highlights and created memories for a lifetime.
Namibia is our new favourite African destination."

Hilltop Guesthouse
"Great little guest house"
Kulala Desert Lodge
"Perfect isolation"
Food was excellent and the decked area was a lovely spot to watch the sun go down.
Rooms were great although very cold at night, definitely worth wrapping up warm.
Breakfast was a little hectic when the tours were eating."
Oryx
5 sightings
Cornerstone Guesthouse
"Nice guest house, super service"
Peter was amazing. So friendly, helpful and informative. Breakfast was great too.
Rooms were ok, bathrooms a little dated. Stayed in nicer places (but also much worse!)"
Mowani Mountain Camp
"Superb on every front"
Food and eating area were both top.
Staff also repaired our punctured tyre.
Only criticism was that we had a bit of a lie in on the first day and breakfast was depleted by the early risers."

Okaukuejo Camp
"All about location "
Accommodation is basic, but perfectly clean and ideal for a night.
Breakfast was a nice surprise and served early enough to get out of the gate as they open.
Olifantsbad waterhole is a perfect distance drive for the last waterhole of the day. We saw a super heard of elephants."

"Good over night stop"
Good dinner options in restaurant so no need to drive out"
Really clean rooms and spacious beds.
Staff we very friendly, in particular the guard. He was incredibly helpful in directing you into the space on the driveway which was a little tight.
Super breakfast on the patio watching the sun rise. A great place to start the holiday."
