My Aug 2022 trip

Namibia between 28 Aug 2022 and 30 Sep 2022

Trip rating: Excellent
"An excellent trip apart from the car issues we had.

The gravel roads aren’t for the faint hearted but the country as a whole makes up for it!

Stunning scenery, a great variety of experiences and many very happy memories.

The tok tokkie trail and Ongava were our highlights"

"Dead Valley Lodge review"

3 nights Arrived 3 Sep 2022
"Having to go across the veranda to access the bathroom was somewhat unusual! However, the accommodation was very comfortable and atmosphere relaxed.

Not sure about the waiting on staff wearing, in some cases, ripped jeans; I think they could have been provided with trousers."

"Mowani Mountain Camp review"

2 nights Arrived 10 Sep 2022
"Excellent accommodation, food and staff.

Unfortunate to only find one elephant on our nature drive (not usual) but our guide worked hard and we had a relaxed long time with him. The guide’s knowledge was very good and her bird spotting and identification was excellent.

The excursion to see the ancient rock art was interesting and informative."

"Camp Kipwe review"

2 nights Arrived 12 Sep 2022
"Friendly staff and good accommodation. I expect the outside bathrooms could be chilly in the winter.

The walk up to the sundowner spot was well worth it!

Great guide for our nature drive which resulted in a super time spent with breeding herd."

Ongava Lodge

Ongava Lodge

"Ongava Lodge review"

5 nights Arrived 14 Sep 2022
"Excellent lodge, food, staff and guide.

Loved the water hole visible from the main lodge and (at an angle) from our veranda. We saw 11 rhino there one evening, the average being about 3.

We spent two mornings at the hide by the water hole and saw a great variety of wildlife; an elephant herd spent 55 minutes there one morning as well as giraffe, oryx, kudu, black backed jackel, warthog, impala and hundreds of comical Guinea fowl.

We found three rhino whilst on foot as well as others from the vehicle."

Clean and well situated for the airport but rather cold with no facility to warm the room.

Dinner was good and as we were leaving early in the morning a breakfast pack was made up for us the evening before."
