Nature Travel Namibia was very responsive during the planning process and we loved Buzzy our guide
5/5

This wasn’t our first trip to Africa, where we lived and worked there most of our adult lives, but never made it to Namibia or Botswana. So, we looked for help from a local agency and Nature Travel has great reviews. Note that this review has not much new to add but can confirm that Petra is very patient and responsive. She helped us to put the Namibia and Botswana trips together within our time and budget restrictions. Between the 2 countries we arranged our own flights (with mileage points) to Zimbabwe to visit the Victoria Falls.

Our Namibia experience was mostly limited to “National parks” which have their own rules and restrictions, which means no roaming of the roads to get closer to animals or other points of interests. In Botswana we chose private camps which allowed us to see some wildlife, including the wild dogs, cheetah and leopard, very close-up.

Whereas the “big five” are a hit or, for some, a must on a trip to Africa, we also enjoy the small stuff or the tall stuff, such as the giraffe. Buzzy, our driver and guide in Namibia, knows his small stuff and we saw more birds than I ever will be able to memorize the names of. During one afternoon drive (between Swakopmund and Solitaire) he made a sudden stop and U-turn to pick up, and show us, a chameleon he had spotted on the side of the road while driving 80 km/hour. Minutes later he did the same for a very deathly scorpion. He identified both by their first and last names (or rather their Latin names😉). This is just to say that with Buzzy there was never a dull moment.

We had made our own arrangements getting to Windhoek and Victoria Falls. All other transfers, made by Petra, went very smoothly. We especially enjoyed the Botswana small Cessna flights. In Botswana we also enjoyed some “drives” by boat, some the size of a large kayak.

Penguins in the Suburbs of Cape Town & Namibia's Extraordinary "Green Season"
5/5

Penguins in the Suburbs of Cape Town & Namibia’s Extraordinary “Green Season”
I recently returned from a visit to Africa, traveling with 5 friends and under the guidance of “Nature Travel Africa”. Our journey started in Cape Town, South Africa for several days to recover from our travels. We viewed the African Penguins which are conveniently located in the suburbs of Cape Town, a beautiful drive to the Cape of Good Hope, and no tour of the area would be complete without a stop at a local winery.
The next part of the journey took us to Namibia, a mostly desert country which had record rain fall this year. The grass was tall and the animals were on the move enjoying the fresh grass and water. This translated into many encounters with the local wildlife. Most memorable was viewing a herd of Zebra’s numbering in the hundreds, arriving to drink in the fresh rain water, a Leopard crossing the road in front of our vehicle, and night viewing of Black Rhinos, Elephants and Lions at the watering hole by our accommodations inside Etosha Park. But we did much more than just game viewing. We walked the red sand dunes of Sossusvlei, took a scenic flight over the ship wrecks of the Skeleton Coast, kayaked with hundreds of seals in Walvis Bay, hiked to ancient rock art in Twyfelfontein, toured the ‘Living Desert” finding life even in the desert sands, and tracking Leopards in a wildlife reserve.
This incredible journey was possible due to the travel team at “Nature Travel Africa”. All of our transfers were on time and efficient, accommodations impeccable, and tours seamless. A special thanks to Nicolette Muller and Nick Buys for answering our many questions in timely communications, and making numerous requested changes to our itinerary. Our guides Geoff in Cape Town, Nick, and Delano in Namibia had in depth knowledge of the area, animal behavior, and great interpersonal skills, being in tune with their clients needs and wants.
Africa is a beautiful and diverse continent with so much to experience. Therefore, I have visited many times and at the end of each trip I start planning my next sojourn to Africa’s many wonders with “Nature Travel Africa”.

Best operator to book your honeymoon safari with!
5/5

Our wedding was in September and we asked well travelled friends where they suggested us to go and they unanimously said to go to Namibia. I found Nature Travel Namibia (NTN) online and out of all the operators I reached out to, NTN was the most engaged, prompt, professional and tailored operator. After reading a lot of guides, I had some ideas on what I wanted us to see and do and my husband wanted to leave from Victoria Falls. We did a 3 week tour mostly in Namibia with the end of the trip in Botswana and Zimbabwe. We self-drove across Namibia and had the most magical experience, starting the trip with sceneries (canyons, desert, sea) and finishing our Namibia and Botswana experience with Safaris. We love Petra, who organized the whole trip for us, she picked the best hotels - some of the most beautiful and surprising places we could only dream of and didn’t know existed. We had some of the best food in Namibia. We loved the calm and relaxing end of the trip in Botswana. We wouldn’t return to Zimbabwe- the falls were beautiful but it was enough to be there for 1 night before returning to our home country. We would definitely return to Namibia and Botswana, and would chose NTN again as operator in a heartbeat. We have to say that Hoodia Lodge was maybe the highlight of our trip - even if we stayed in many magical places, the staff and owners were just fantastic. Do book different types of safaris: boat, drive, morning, evening as the animals you can see and the experiences are so unique. We love the hot air balloon tour over the desert, seeing wild animals running down below. The peace and quiet of the desert and nature was fantastic, it was a shock going to a town after getting used to living with the rising and setting of the sun. Since the honeymoon we have grown our family and cannot wait for our kids to be old enough to take them on a safari, shame we will have to wait a while before going back. If you have any doubts on who to chose for a safari honeymoon or luxury holiday, I cannot recommend Petra and NTN more.

Professional and personal excellence in planning and conduct of my awesome Namibian adventure!
5/5

I read about Nature Travel Namibia on the net and some positive client reviews made me contact them for planning my 10-days’ trip 31st Jan to 9th Feb 2025. My goal was to see some key mammal and bird species that I had dreamt of for many years as well as to get an overall experience of the unique Namibian nature with its deserts, rocks and coastline. Petra Joell caught my expectations and booked my itinerary and was responsive and energetic in her communication and I immediately felt that I was in good and professional hands. Petra’s husband Buzzy met me at the airport in Windhoek 31st of January and the adventure started right away. Buzzy and I then had 10 epic days together and I really enjoyed his guiding and company, and he managed to find my dream species and much more. It was obvious that Buzzy knew how and when to look for different mammal and bird species and he also demonstrated deep skills when it came to reptiles, amphibians, insects, spiders and plants. We also found some rare birds and Buzzy got to new life birds and it is always a good thing when the guide gets excited. As a biologist since my early childhood and education at the University, it was great for me to be able to discuss the processes and links within the Namibian nature with Buzzy to get a deeper understanding regarding these quite extreme ecosystems. The lodges we stayed at were top class situated in the middle of nature with great food, rooms and service.

From my heart I can really recommend that you go with Nature Travel Namibia in the Southern part of Africa.

Nature Travel Namibia was professional and very effective
5/5

I had two days intense birding trip with Nature Travel Namibia, My guide Colandri was amazing, She was so talented especially on voices. She had energy to find out every bird we saw or heard. Our targets was mainly nearly endemic birds, and she founded almost all possible species. Overall everything went very smoothly and like we had agreed. I can recommend Nature Travel Namibia without any hesitation.
