My Mar 2022 trip

Namibia between 25 Mar 2022 and 15 Apr 2022

Trip rating: Excellent
"Our trip was very well organised. We had to shift it twice due to Covid and were only able to travel two years later than planned.

It had rained in February, which made the desert bloom, but also meant some animals had anything options to drink and were not necessarly at the waterholes.

We saw more animals than listed linked to the lodges, since we visited Etosha and saw lions there e.g. Also saw animals along the road while driving outside parks. Saw many special birds. Everything was pleasant and beautiful. Very relaxing.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

No everything was perfect. Staff with an open ear for questions and a lot of empathy.

Highly recommended."

2 nights Arrived 28 Mar 2022
"Barkhan Dune Retreat we very much enjoyed. Very personal.

Excellent cooking, the hosts are a very friendly and sympathetic young couple full of ideas how to develop and further improve the place.

Beautiful new chalets. Very spacious.

I can strongly recommend. It is not luxurious, more down to earth, but very good and very clean."

"We were given a room on the second floor at the back side of the hotel, looking at the car park behind the hotel.
I immediately complained and got then a sunny room overlooking the street. The hotel was not fully booked at all. So...

We enjoyed the hotel in the end. Nice rooms and very good breakfast."

2 nights Arrived 9 Apr 2022
"a not very interested staff. they just did the job.

Room and bath were not really that clean. Windows with spiderwebs, a door could not close well and one pane of glass was broken.

First wanted to give us a room with two seperate bed, when we complained the room with a double bed was possible. Was not fully booked.

Food was average and staff was not really forthcoming."
