Outstanding and extraordinary tour operators! Use them.
Outstanding and extraordinary tour operators! We had an incredible experience from start to finish. We had an excellent and knowledgeable driver/tour guide for two five-day private sojourns. We could not ask for more as he focused on us and our needs including seeking out unique off-the-grid places that would be of deep interest to us. He went out of his way to ensure we saw the pygmy elephants at Twyfelfontein. We could not be more pleased with him. Be sure to ask for him, Puvi Haakuria (Merron Jr.), to be your guide; you will not regret it! Ms. Aina Jairus was also most helpful in organizing the trip.

Safari done right: trusted operators bringing you closer to nature, wildlife, and wonder.
People Tours and Safari gave me an incredible experience from start to finish. The team was professional, attentive, and very knowledgeable about the wildlife and landscapes. Every detail was well-organized from comfortable transport to amazing game drives where we spotted the Big Five. The guides were friendly, patient, and passionate about sharing their culture and stories, which made the safari even more meaningful. I felt safe, welcomed, and completely immersed in the beauty of nature. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an unforgettable safari adventure! All the way from Singapore 🇸🇬
Amazing and well informed with a calm spirit
My experience resumed before we got Namibia,the warmth communication with Emilia was outstanding. She is kind hearted and patient with PTS clients. As we got to Hosea Kutako international airport, we were welcomed by our tour guide Luke Nashongo. Luke took us to meet Emilia and we explored the Namibian market at the china city where we fell in love with the Namibian traditional dresses, very nice. We proceeded to SOLITAIRE with Luke, capturing memories all the way. Luke is very patient considering that we are ladies and like pictures he didn’t mind. We lodged at NAMIB DESSERT LODGE, the next morning we went to visit all Sand Dunes, Mommy Dunes, Dunes 45 and Big Daddy Dunes with our fitness trainer/tour guide Luke😀, he gave us the best experience. What stood out for was his patience when one struggling on the sandy hills of the Dunes, he was very patient and he captured good memories for us at Sossusvlei and Deadvlei at Big Daddy Dunes. We advanced to the Sesriem Canyon🥰nice experience. Luke wanted to make sure that we do not miss out anything. He really created a great experience for myself and my friends. The next day we passed by the Tropic of Capricorn and learned about the Quiver tree, while proceeding to the DareDavil Adventures for an amazing quad bike ride on the Sand Dunes. Walvis Bay was our next destination were we explored the cruise, and we moved to the Pink lake with David also, the best tour guide to the Sandwich harbour, woow, what a drive we explored there on the sand dunes and we had a great time picnic at the Sandwich Harbour by the Ocean, 🌊 I didn’t want to go back. The pink lake is something else, a very nice spot to capture memories. Overall I would like to thank Luke Nashongo, David and Emilia. Luke has a good heart is your go to when traveling with PTS . Good vibes at WalvisBay your go to Man is David😍 he will give you a good picnic ✋🏾. Thanks you PTS 🇳🇦, I enjoyed my stay with you. Thank you Luke for your kind heart ❤️.

Excellent tour operator, both before during and after the tour (highly recommendable)
Our overall experience with People Tours And Safari for our private guided tours was really great, in every aspect.
When planning the (private) tour, Aina was flexible and greatly accommodating to all our needs, changes and wishes.
During our tour, our guide Tuhafeni was knowledgeable, flexible, and got us to everywhere at the right times, all while taking great care of us.
I would definitely recommend People Tours And Safari to anyone planning a private guided tour through Namibia : 5 stars, without a doubt.

Fantastic tour of Namibia especially for first time in Africa
As a solo traveler embarking on my first trip through southern Africa, I couldn't have asked for a more perfect introduction to the continent than this incredible tour of Namibia. What began as a four-day photography tour quickly transformed into a six-day, life-changing adventure, all thanks to the outstanding team at People Tours and Safari.
The exceptional service began well before I even landed. With just a month's notice, I was in communication with Emilia, who was an absolute lifesaver. She seamlessly extended my trip from four to six days to accommodate my travel schedule and expertly sorted out all the logistics in what felt like an impossibly short amount of time. Her professionalism and prompt communication provided immense peace of mind, and I am so grateful for her hard work in making this trip a reality.
My journey truly began when my guide, Leonard, picked me up from the airport. The moment we started the five-hour drive deep into the Namib desert, I knew I was in good hands. Leonard is more than just a tour guide; he's a natural storyteller with an infectious charisma. The long drive flew by, filled with fascinating conversations, his fantastic selection of music, and his expert navigation of the rough gravel roads. Throughout the entire trip, he was not only a great conversationalist but also a patient and knowledgeable companion, always willing to pull over and help me line up the perfect photo or share interesting facts about the local wildlife. His keen eye for spotting animals from a distance was truly impressive and resulted in some of my favorite shots.
Our first major stop was the iconic Sossusvlei and Deadvlei. Leonard's savvy timing was impeccable, as he made sure we arrived early enough to beat the major crowds, allowing me to fully soak in the silence and scale of the dunes in the soft morning light. The sheer magnitude of the red dunes against the bright blue sky was breathtaking, and the stark, sculptural beauty of the ancient camel thorn trees in Deadvlei was unlike anything I had ever seen. While a surprise gust of wind cut our attempt to summit Big Daddy Dune short, the thrill of the climb was an adventure in itself. We then visited Sesriem Canyon, where Leonard pointed out the astonishing catfish that somehow survive in that harsh, arid environment—a truly unique and memorable detail.
The next leg of the journey took us to the coast, with an unexpected and delightful bonus. After a long drive to Swakopmund, Leonard surprised me with a personalized tour of Walvis Bay. He drove me to the salt flats, showed me around the city itself, and took me to a flamingo park where hundreds of flamingos created a stunning pink spectacle against the water. It was a thoughtful and wonderful addition to the itinerary. The following day, we headed up the Skeleton Coast, where we met Leonard's coworker, Froggy. Froggy, another fantastic guide, was incredibly funny and charismatic, taking us on a thrilling tour through the dunes. His sense of humor and warmth made the experience an absolute blast, culminating in a delicious lunch served at the "desert restaurant," a secluded and perfectly prepared meal that felt both rustic and elegant.
The tour's grand finale was at Spitzkoppe, where Leonard timed our arrival with cinematic perfection. We entered the park just as the sun began its descent, bathing the dramatic granite peaks in a golden and fiery glow. It was, without a doubt, one of the most stunning sunsets I have ever witnessed. As twilight deepened, the real magic began. Far from any light pollution, we did some stargazing, and for the first time in my life, I saw the majestic band of the Milky Way stretching across the sky. The trip concluded with a final city tour of Windhoek, where Leonard shared some final insights before dropping me off at my hotel.
For anyone looking to experience the magic of Namibia, look no further. The tour's price was incredibly reasonable, especially considering the expert planning, personalized attention, and unforgettable experiences. People Tours and Safari truly delivers a high-quality, professional, and genuinely personal experience. I cannot recommend them enough and will absolutely be booking with them again on my next trip to Namibia!

Perfect organization
We have booked the trip in January and since that time the communication went smoothly and I got any advice I needed till our trip started in September. The country is huge and it is good to count with enough time for the transfers. We could not getbetter giude than Luke. He took care about everything and we could enjoy the trip without limits.

the company's itinerary was good, but the tour guide's service could be improved
We found the People's Tour and Safaris on Viator.
The communication with our itinerary planner, Emilia, was very smooth.She provided us with a clear five-day, four-night itinerary, including places to visit and stay. We were very satisfied with the accommodations, meals, car, and all the attractions. We give this tour plan 4.5 stars.
However, there are still some areas that need
improvement.For example, the guide's service could be more professional, not just be like a driver. He seemed to have other things to do as well and couldn't focus on the service.He borrowed 400 Namibian dollars from me at Cape Cross but completely forgot about it unti l reminded him before saying goodbye at the WDH airport. lt wasn't a big deal, and l still tipped him. But l hope this doesn't happen again. also please help with luggage, especially for the elderly.Try to be attentive to guest'sneeds.We rate his service 3.5 stars.so the final average rating is 4.0 stars.

Amazing and varied tour around Namibia, perfectly arranged itinerary by People Tours and Safari
The tour was faultless from start to finish thanks to Aina’s efforts with the itinerary and Leonard’s reliable driving and guiding. We loved all the lodges including the guided tours and food.
Thanks to Leonard, we experienced Dune 45 at sunset which was magic. Froggy did a marvellous job driving us up and down the dunes at Sandwich harbour. We had such a great time and could not stop laughing.
While the gravel roads were in bad shape sometimes, Leonard got us safely and on time everywhere we went. His idea to drive through Etosha National park was great as it meant we got the opportunity to see more animals. This was not in the itinerary so his initiative was highly appreciated.
We were stunned to get an upgrade at the last lodge which was solely thanks to People Tours and Safari.
We could not recommend the tour operator enough and would not hesitate to use them again. In addition, it is nice to support a local company.
