Namibia is a country of natural beauty and beautiful, friendly people

driver to take me to Etosha and look after everything while I was there. Etosha was a mix of sitting by a water hole and game driving. The amount and diversity of wildlife around the waterhole were incredible, I particularly liked it when a herd of elephants or rhinos would visit. That was it, short but sweet.I look forward to my next trip to explore more of Namibia with my friends.

Trip of a lifetime
Namibia felt very safe. Driving was easy (despite being on the wrong side of the road for us). Internet coverage is poor outside of population centres or lodges; make sure you have downloaded offline maps beforehand. People were very friendly, and the staff everywhere spoke excellent English and were helpful and knowledgeable about local attractions. Do take your time in Etosha NP. We spent two full days there, and that definitely wasn't enough. Still, throughout Namibia, we saw more wildlife every day than normally in a year in Estonia.

locations and lodges available. My opinion is that in four people we have safed at least € 3.000 to € 4.000, compared with other big travel organisations, from which I received quotations. The car rental company was Namib's Roos Car Rental. We had the best possible car Toyota 4x4 Hilux DC 2.4 TD. (do not safe money on the car and insurances!) Also the guys were amazing and should be definitly recommended. Full explanation about the car, gas stations, tyre pressure change etc. One last remark. Namibia is very poor. You can drive tens of km without meeting anybody, just some men or kids with goats. When you stop to ask them if they need something, they just ask for water!!! (not for water) Please bring a lot of bottles of water and distribute them when you meet these poor people in the desert!!

What a place!
If you are looking for something called "breathtaking", that's the place! Every day something new and exciting, wild animals everywhere, beatiful landscape and good beer! This holiday was "WOW"

Totally quiet holidays
Windhoek is nice city with somewhat Europeanized buildings. So sunny and dry. We spent 3 nights at the desert lodge watching quiet desert and strange looking trees. This is probably a bit different destination in Africa for tourists with distinct tastes.

A Kaledoscope of Scenery, Wildlife and People
But not only this, the country is so much more than the usual tourist routes. It was great to top up with diesel fuel and stock up on supplies in towns such as Keetmanshoop, Aus, Outjo, Tsumeb,

Otjiwaarongo and Okahandja, have a bite to eat and soak up the atmosphere of these, I think, typical African towns.One or two things to note: arriving in Windhoek after long flights you may well feel a little weary and even sluggish and the effect can be exacerbated by the capital being at 1,600m altitude; the accommodation inside Etosha may not be at the same level as even immediately outside the Park; the quality of the C and D roads can be bad due to the 'washboard' surface but even so driving up the D707 on our way to Sesriem was a marvellous experience.
We hope to be back soon because, as with all the best destinations, we feel we've only scratched the surface - there's so much more to discover.

Very interesting and varied
Learnt a lot about deserts. Liked the Skeleton coast (but it was cold!). The safari in Etosha was a highlight. Most of the lodges were good and the food good also.

Namibia is beautiful and you will fall in love with the people!
Best experience was walking with the San people. Explaining their culture and how they live in the bush was incredible! Also visiting the Namib Desert and Sandwhich Harbor was absolutely beautiful.

Beauty untold
My trip to Namibia was absolutely a fantastic experience from the word go. The tour was well planned and we had an excellent, informative guide. We stayed at really wonderful guestfarms and lodges and the food was really great. Namibia is truly beautiful with a lot of contrasts and history. Etosha was a highlight as well as the dunes at Sossusvlei. I will do it again in a heartbeat.
