This trip was superb! It was the start of our honeymoon and a brilliant adventure. We camped in incredible camp sites with superb stargazing. The scenery during the walks were brilliant and the safari was superb. The 2 guides Omumborombonga and Tuhafeni were so helpful, friendly and knew so much. The vehicle was comfortable and brilliant for the safari. Food on the camp fire was delicious. We had a brilliant group. Highly recommend the trip and visiting Namibia.

This was a very enjoyable trip, covering an unexpected variety of scenery and activities. Our guide Omumborombonga (AKA Samora) and assistant Tuhafeni went out of their way to ensure we had a good time. It is clear that they are both very proud of their country & history and were keen to demonstrate it. Every day seemed to be a step up in impressiveness of what we saw and experienced. Due to the distances covered and the scheduled activities it meant quick packdowns each morning and perhaps a little less ‘free time’ than I’ve experienced on other trips. This isn’t a criticism though – I wanted to experience as much as possible and once the group understood the routine we became pretty adept at rapid turnround.

With this being a camping trip and also spending a fair amount of time in the truck, it meant that the group quickly gelled. Our guides said that it was like we turned up already knowing each other. A willingness to get involved and contribute to the group experience is definitely part of this. The range and quality of food served at the camps was excellent and a pleasant surprise each evening. There are also opportunities to visit local restaurants which were also very good.

I was expecting to see some impressive wildlife due to the reputation of Etosha (and it definitely delivered), but one particular highlight was the simultaneous arrival of Giraffe, Rhino, Leopard and a herd of Elephant at a waterhole that we would have missed if not for deciding to stay for five minutes longer. What I wasn’t quite so prepared for was the range and diversity of scenery around the country – the famous Red Dunes at Sossusvlei, the salt pan at Deadvlei, the rock formations of Spitzkoppe, the coastal atmosphere at Swakopmund, and the hypnotic stars visible most nights. There were also vast expanses of desert between these locations – something that became immediately apparent looking down from the flight from Johannesburg on Day 1. Make sure you bring plenty of memory cards for the photos.

There are various activities to do at Swakopmund, but I believe most opt for the scenic flight. As it turned out it was fully booked while we were there, but the Sandwich Bay Harbour tour is a great alternative. Although it sounds sedate, we were treated to a 4x4 dash along the beach seeing wildlife along the way before it turned into a rollercoaster ride across the dunes, stopping for canapes and wine mid-way.

Thoroughly recommended trip.

Don't just think about this trip, book it! An adventure of a lifetime. The scenery is fantastic, and such contrasts, all in one day! I absolutely loved our camp in Etosha, right at a waterhole. This was one of the best experiences to watch giraffes, elephants, black Rhino, and lions drinking in front of us. Our guide Samora had eagle eyes and spotted a variety of wildlife, the most incredible spot was the Leopard! He had not seen one in years and it walked right to the water hole on our game drive, along with a Rhino, giraffe and a heard of elephants!! Samora and Tuhafeni were the dream team on tour. Always there to help, and make our holiday a memorable adventure in Namibia.Tuhafeni cooked up some very tasty meals, some of the salads were fantastic. You won't lose weight with all the hiking 🤣 Most of the camp sites are very scenic, and great locations. We loved them. The tents are easy to put up and I could stand up in our tent. I'd highly recommend doing the Sandwich Harbour excursion, it was one of the many highlights on this trip. Dune 45 and Deadvlei were also one of my highlights. Be prepared, for early starts, it's the only way to see wildlife, beautiful sunrises and over the dunes. The chain bridge is daunting, however Samora got us across and knew how to help those of us that needed that extra help, like me. I'd highly recommend this trip. I loved it so much I'd go again ! Thank you for a memorable adventure.

This was an absolutely incredible experience. Namibia is out of this world! Every destination and activity truly felt like a bucket list experience. Omumborombonga (Sam) and Tuhafeni were amazing. The food was incredible- bananas foster on the braai was a highlight. Both were knowledgeable and so much fun! Our group dynamic was incredible and we elected to stick together as a group for all of the optional activities we got on so well. Our game drive days will be impossible to top; mating lions, a leopard, and waterholes with dozens of elephants, giraffe, and rhino at the same time! We watched the baby elephants play in the mud and had so many once in a lifetime experiences in only nine days! I already want to go back!

Just got back. Overall a fantastic trip. Namibia is a spectacular country and missing it already. A huge amount fitted into the 11 days. Lots of early mornings and the guides expect guests to erect and dismantle the tents, and load truck etc which does help the group to bond. Camp food was excellent and accommodated the vegetarians in the group. The nights and early mornings get pretty cold so layers and sleeping bag liner are essential. Our guide and assistant were excellent - very knowledgeable and engaging and great fun. Wildlife was amazing but take binoculars if you can. Walks are moderate to challenging and a reasonable level of fitness is required. Did the horse riding in Swakopund which was a gentle walk and highly recommended. Unfortunately due to sand storm our flight and dolphin trip were cancelled. Overall a very special adventure.

Well, what can I say. I decided to book this trip as it was my 3 loves: hiking, star gazing and animals. It did not disappoint.

Firstly, Namibia is beautiful and the terrain is insane. Words cannot describe what a beautiful country it is.

Secondly, if you’re looking for a relaxed holiday this is not for you. It’s non-stop but hey, what an adventure. From the sand dunes in the south to the animals in the north. I also booked the small flight along the Skelton coast and I’m so glad I did.

Thirdly, the guides Samora and Jonas make this trip. Their knowledge, expertise and experience made this such a memorable trip. They are fantastic.

Fourthly, the group. Met a bunch of strangers, and made great friendships. I was a little nervous thinking that I was going to be the eldest one there but age is just a number and the group were just amazing. Cannot wait to join them for more adventures.

This is a great trip for those new to Southern Africa or looking to go a bit further afield. Discovery of the diversity of Namibia - sand dunes, canyons, fabulous night skies, the Skeleton coast and safari - at pace but without feeling rushed. Big shout out to local hosts Samora and Jonas who were incredible. Great food, good vehicle, quality tents. Take the optional sightseeing flight if you can. Honestly, not a bad word to say about this trip.

An incredible trip. Sam and Jonas were brilliant hosts. Their wealth of knowledge, their planning, and the food they cooked were all fantastic. I couldn't recommend it enough. I feel like I've been away for a month not a week and a half! Every sunrise and sunset was stunning, and we saw the Milky Way almost every night. As a side note, in June, the temperature drops sharply in the evening, so pack more long sleeves than T-shirts.

Great trip the local staff are first class, very knowledgeable and great fun to be with. Book onto the optional flight, it will add a great deal to your whole experience of Namibia.✴️✴️✴️✴️✴️

Wow! What a fantastic trip. Sam our guide was super helpful, approachable and knowledgeable (he also cooks some very tasty food!). He shared so much with us about the local wildlife, culture and history of the places we visited. Each day was jam packed with activities and awe inspiring views but the itinerary is carefully planned with a sprinkling of down time. If you’re looking to get outside and explore Namibia’s stunning nature and landscapes, I’d highly recommend this trip!
