An Unforgettable 16-Day Safari from Windhoek to Victoria Falls

We just completed a breathtaking 16-day journey from Windhoek to Victoria Falls, and we owe much of its success to the incredible team at Blue Crane Safari.

First, a big thank you to Jamie, our tour operator, who crafted the itinerary and accommodation to match our wishes perfectly. Every detail was clearly communicated and flawlessly arranged. We were even provided with a brand-new 4x4 vehicle—fresh off the lot—and had the honor of being its first users!

But the true heart of our adventure was Markus, our tour guide and driver. His dedication, professionalism, and genuine care made this trip unforgettable. Markus kept the vehicle spotless every day, drove with exceptional skill—always avoiding potholes—and made us feel safe and comfortable throughout.

What truly set Markus apart was his extraordinary knowledge of birds and wildlife. His ability to spot birds from incredible distances was astonishing, and he never hesitated to stop the vehicle so we could take photos whenever we encountered birds along the road. These spontaneous moments became some of our favorite memories. His passion for nature, paired with his eagle-eyed vision and insightful commentary, turned every sighting into a meaningful experience.

Markus wasn’t just a guide—he was a companion, a protector, and a walking encyclopedia of the African wilderness. His presence elevated our trip from great to exceptional.

We wholeheartedly recommend Blue Crane Safari to anyone seeking a personalized, professional, and deeply enriching safari experience. And if you’re lucky enough to have Markus as your guide, prepare for a journey filled with wonder, warmth, and unforgettable wildlife encounters.

Immaculate organisation, great experiences, spot on communication and excellent tour guide
5/5

Our family of 5 (kids between 11 and 15) was perfectly taken care of right from the initial planning through to organisation and execution. The communication through Jamie Carew was excellent and the execution of our tour through our tour guide Frank was outstanding. The tour was tailored to our needs, our tour guide was so knowledgeable and attentive to our family requirements. Perfect mix of culture, nature and information. Frank facilitated for our special wishes where possible, was super knowledgeable and reliable and gave us always enough space to enjoy our privacy as a family when needed while always being there for us. Couldn't have wished for anything better.

Outstanding tour operator with exceptional service
5/5

In evaluating our trip, we determined that the entirely of the trip was the best we have taken. Of the 29 foreign trips that were have had the privilege to participate, Namibia was outstanding. And Blue Crane Safari provided an literary that was varied, nicely paced with lovely lodges. The variety of activities and their memorable experiences we recommend Namibia and in particular Blur Crane without reservation.

EXCELLENT
5/5

We had an incredible trip through Blue Crane Safaris. With Moses as our guide--he was extraordinary! Highly recommend. All the lodges and experiences they booked worked out perfectly. We saw animals galore, experienced the Namibian people, culture and cuisine, and enjoyed every aspect of our trip. Awesome scenic flights. HIGHLY recommend the hot air balloon ride. Working with Derek and the blue crane team was so easy and really made our trip stress free

Blue Crane Safaris planned our trip with knowledge of Namibia that made our trip fantastic!
5/5

My daughter and I planned the trip relying on Blue Crane Safaris to pick our Safari experiences and Lodges/hotels that turned out way better than what we expected. The years of experience and their connections made our trip unbelieveable…We were upgraded at one of the Lodges - nicest places we have ever stayed in. I believe it was because of Blue Cranes reputation that made the upgrade possible. Our Guide seemed to know everyone, Moses varied background at lodges and guiding was evident throughout the trip.

A Journey of a Lifetime – Perfectly Curated by Blue Crane Safaris Namibia
5/5

We just returned from an unforgettable trip to Namibia in May 2025, and we cannot recommend Blue Crane Safaris Namibia highly enough. From start to finish, every detail was flawlessly arranged, creating a truly seamless and enriching travel experience.

A special thank you to Petrina Kautondokwa, who helped us design a tailor-made itinerary that was perfectly aligned with our interests and pace. Her responsiveness, attention to detail, and local insight made the planning process effortless and enjoyable.

Every lodge and camp she selected offered stunning settings, excellent service, and an authentic atmosphere. From the towering dunes of Sossusvlei to the wildlife-rich plains of Etosha and the wild beauty of the Skeleton Coast, Doro Nawas and Hoanib River each destination was a highlight in its own right.

Our guides were outstanding—knowledgeable, personable, and truly passionate about Namibia. We always felt safe, well-informed, and inspired throughout the journey.

Blue Crane Safaris Namibia delivers not just a holiday, but an unforgettable experience. If you’re considering exploring this breathtaking country, we wholeheartedly recommend booking with them—you’ll be in the best hands

FLEXIBLE AND WELL ORGANISED
5/5


Arriving in Walvis Bay on our yacht,the crew of SV Moonbird were looking forward to exploring the Namibian desert.
We found Blue Crane were the only tour company willing to create a bespoke tour for the 5 of us at short notice. Our guide, Sydnie, collected us from the waterfront and thus began a brilliant and packed tour itinerary that took us to all the main sites we had been hoping for. Sydnie was extremely knowledgeable, and his kind and friendly manner made the trip very enjoyable, and his driving was excellent. We really enjoyed staying at the desert lodge, and the sunset drive. We even had an afternoon cooling off in the pool. All the facilities and partner organisations were top notch. Sydnie even arranged a birthday cake for one of our party!

Everything - from the drives, scenery, wildlife, accommodation, restaurants, etc. - was beyond anything we had imagined.

I would definitely book with Blue Crane Safaris if I return to Namibia.
