My Nov 2014 trip

Zambia between 5 Nov 2014 and 15 Nov 2014

Trip rating: Excellent
"We intend to book a similar trip again (maybe in 2016). Apart from a few minor issues, everything was perfect.

The only recommendation I would suggest is a visit to a local village - we would have been willing to sacrifice one of our game drives for that."

"Nsefu review"

4 nights Arrived 10 Nov 2014
"Another excellent camp in a super location.

Lost count of the number of lions and leopards seen here in 4 days. Our guide was Chris and we had a number of memorable game drives with him. His detailed knowledge of the bush was always impressive."

Namibia Tour 2008

Namibia between 13 Feb 2008 and 28 Feb 2008

Trip rating: Excellent
"An excellent trip, but much wetter than we expected (We had been to Namibia in February before and saw no rain).

This is a good time of year to see everything green (even in the desert) and the young animals in Etosha.

Very quiet in Etosha. We watched a rhino for 30 minutes and no other car came along.

With two spare tyres we had no punctures this time. We managed easily without a 4x4 - I would not have attempted to cross the Tsauchab in flood even with a 4x4 as the water was above my knees and flowing fast. No problems with the car and very helpful staff at Windhoek airport."

Hilltop House, Namibia (this camp has since closed)

"Hilltop House review"

1 night Arrived 13 Feb 2008
"Very helpful owners who recommended Joe's Beer House nearby for our evening meal. There we got the best meat on this trip.

They also gave helpful advice on security (i.e. you must get a taxi back)."

"Wolwedans Dune Lodge review"

2 nights Arrived 14 Feb 2008
"Food rather pretentious - we know it is difficult running a restaurant here as all the food comes from Windhoek.

More simple better quality meals would have been more appreciated.

Activities were good and well organised."

Kulala Desert Lodge

"Kulala Desert Lodge review"

2 nights Arrived 16 Feb 2008
"The access road was in poor condition and we complained to the manager.

The manager (Jonathan) was exceptionally helpful when we laft as the Tsauchab river flooded at Sesriem and he arranged for us to use their private gate to get onto the tarred road to Sesriem.

Our guide who took us to Sossusvlei was excellent."

2 nights Arrived 20 Feb 2008
"Rather gloomy main building. Outdoor shower was a novelty.

Pool definitely not nice !

Guide tried very hard to find an elephant but we only saw footprints. We would have prefered to stay further north (our first choice was Damaraland Camp which is closed for renovation)."

1 night Arrived 26 Feb 2008
"Access road poor, especially in heavy rain.

Guide (Sanel) was really excellent and carried on regardless of the rain.

We did not see any leopard here.

I think they got us up early just so that they could get us out of our room by 10.00am."
