Organised, knowledgeable, helpful and responsive
5/5

We had an amazing holiday and experience planned by Great Explorations Namibia. From the point of enquiry to being in Namibia, Jade from Great Explorations was helpful and knowledgeable helping to plan the best route and experience for our budget and family.
Nothing was too much trouble even when we were swapping hotels as to best suite our family needs.
Jade met us at our first hotel following arrival in Namibia and provided a welcome pack with all vouchers as well as a very useful highlighted and marked map for ease of use. She answered all our questions making us feel welcomed and prepared for the trip ahead.
As a young family smooth transition from locations and hotels aids in an enjoyable holiday and for the most part this went without any problems. Any small issues we were able to contact great explorations via a emergency number and they were very responsive and helpful.
We had wonderful time and were able to see all the sights and animals we had hoped and planned before our trip.
Note - swimming pools are cold at nearly all locations, no matter where across the country.
We travelled from Windhoek to Kalahari, over to Soussaveli, Swakopmund, Twyfelfontien, Grootberg, ,Etosha, Okonjima and then Avenir before back home. All accommodations were excellent. Okaukuejo at Etosha was probably the least plush, however we knew this coming into the trip, but it does have one of the best watering holes which was true for our trip.
Okonjima was beautiful and we would definitely recommend the other locations we stayed (Desert Hills Lodge, Twyfelfontien Adventure Camp - go premium well worth it, Onguma Bush Camp and Avenir Lodges).
The living desert tour in Swakupmund is really great especially for the kids as is the sandwich harbour dune tour with sand boarding.
Deadveli is lovely but you can explore on your own, however to get the most out of the game reserves, guided drives are best. On all our drives the guides found animals that we would have driven straight past.
Get up early at Etosha when leaving though, as we were fortunate enough to see a pride of 7 lions lazing and playing by the watering hole.
An amazing once trip made all the better by the organisations smooth running provided by Great Explorations Namibia would definitely recommend.

The Best Way to Plan a Namibia Self-Drive
5/5

We were planning a self‑drive trip through Namibia and initially started by researching possible routes, accommodations and logistics on our own.
After a lot of research, we contacted Great Explorations Namibia to check their self‑drive package, as they specialize in organizing tailored self‑drive itineraries, including accommodation bookings and rental car arrangements, which was exactly what we were looking for.
From that first contact, everything was perfectly organized: they took care of all the practical details, arranged our rental car and accommodation, and kept communication clear and timely throughout the entire process.
What we especially appreciated was how flexible they were in customizing the trip: we were able to adjust the itinerary in detail to match our preferences and interests, and all our requests were handled quickly and professionally.
The combination of excellent organization, reliable arrangements and friendly, efficient communication made the whole planning process completely stress‑free.
Based on our experience, we can highly recommend Great Explorations Namibia to anyone considering a self‑drive trip in Namibia.

We traveled for two weeks with Jade as our guide. There are no words to describe it. The trip was planned perfectly and she accompanied us the entire

Excellent tour planning, flexible schedule and great selection of accommodations.
5/5

Lily customised our tour as we wanted to limit driving long distances. Her suggestions took account of our situation and she included first class lodges and an excellent driver/guide for our 11 day trip. Her costings were very fair and reasonable compared to other companies who quoted for like tours. She went out of her way to secure the best bookings and locations for us and met us on our arrival day with detailed itinerary.
Would highly recommend this company.
