Wild and wonderful
I really enjoyed my time in Namibia. I liked Windhoek however one or two days was enough. I enjoyed going throughout the country visiting Etosha and then the coast and then of course the dunes. The tour we were on was action packed and we saw so many different animals and met people from different cultures. It was a wonderful experience.

Incredible beautiful country, easy to fall in love 🥰! Over all my expectations!
We have contacted Tour operator, and they adjusted our trip to our budget and desire.
At airport in Windhoek we were met by friendly and professional personnel, they were very effective at all services from visas to car rental. From the first accommodation we’ve got excellent service, huge rooms at every lodge we stayed, good food and friendly and polite personnel. June is vinter time in Namibia, and night temperature dropped down to 2-3 degrees C. It was heating in almost every lodge we stayed, warm water in the shower, clean rooms and tents and even European power outlets.
Most of the places like gas stations, restaurants, safari operators and lodges used credit cards terminals.
About nature and wildlife. The nature in Namibia varies a lot from the dead desert to sunlit savannah with green trees. Damaraland

is completely different with red mountains. Namibia is a big country with just three million inhabitants. Distance between destinations are quite long, and there is a lot of space for everyone. Tourist attractions don’t feel crowded. The most tourist we met was in Swakopmund and Sossusvlei.Etosha national park has variety of wildlife. There were animals roaming just outside lodges. Every lodge offers guided safaris with very knowledgeable guides . I wish we could stay longer in Etosha, I would book more guided safaris. My advice to book in advance. Evening and whole day safaris are best, you get best light in evening, and guide will take you to some special places for wildlife watching. Everything is well organised, clean toilets at all tourist destinations, good parking facilities. This country is much cleaner than we used to here in Europe! Of course it’s Africa and country is not rich, so we have seen poor villages filled with rubbish too. We talked to locals, they were poor, but friendly and polite. Give them food and water if you have, maybe some clothes.
Nature in Namibia is just fantastic with landscapes just out of this world! It’s impossible to describe! It’s better to see!
Roads very from very good standard to very poor quality, especially in Damaraland. But we loved to drive on gravel roads, it was not boring and you can see a lot of surrounding countryside. Our advice: rent a bigger 4WD car, so you can stay on the road stable.
All 16 days we were staying in Namibia, the weather was fine. Just sunny, but Swakopmund was foggy and wet. Cold winds from Atlantic brought waves and humidity. This is the only place we had unfortunately accommodation without heating, we wouldn’t stay there again. So bring with you some warm clothes, light down jacket and pyjamas, as it can be cold in tent lodge at night. As soon sun comes up, it’ll get warm.
By conclusion: we loved Namibia so much, that we’re already planning to come back to Namibia❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️.

Namibia is a beautiful desert landscape with a great variety of wildlife, kind people and great food
We went on a two day safari in July. The weather was great. Our tour operator picked us up at our hotel and was full of local knowledge including the animals/birds and geology. We saw elephants heading to a watering hole, including one that was splashing in the water. We saw many zebras including a herd that stretched on for miles. We also saw lots of springbok, some kudu, warthogs, rhinos and giraffes. So many kinds of birds. It was an experience that exceeded expectations and that we will never forget.
