Helpful, professional Namibia and Southern Africa tour operator with a human touch
5/5

We returned home last week after a wonderful holiday in Namibia and Victoria Falls. We just wanted to say a big thank you to SWA Safaris for organising our programme. The accommodation and itinerary you chose suited us very well.

We also wanted to say how much we appreciated Rion, our guide. Right from the start he made us feel very welcome and that continued throughout our stay. He was always happy to answer our (often many!) questions about animals, wildlife, culture, etc in Namibia and that gave us so much more insight and understanding of your country than if we had been visiting by ourselves.

He remained calm and positive in even challenging circumstances, such as the sandstorm we encountered in the desert. His common sense made us feel safe and in the end we did get to experience one of the sand dunes when the weather finally allowed.

He was very good at keeping us on schedule, even if getting a family of five to be ready to leave by 8am on holiday is not an easy task! But he also gave us a nice mix of being together and some time alone, which I’m sure he also needed as some of the days involved quite a lot of driving.

We particularly appreciated his willingness to go above and beyond, for example when after two days in Etosha when we still hadn’t seen a lion - he took us out for a third time after he heard that there was a male lion not far from our lodge!! Thanks Rion for that!!

We have come home with beautiful photos of countryside and animals and even more beautiful memories to treasure. We will not hesitate to recommend SWA Safaris to any friends or family interested in visiting Namibia.

A reliable touroperator for great and well-designed safaris to Namibia.
5/5

On the recommendation of a friend, we booked a private safari in Namibia with SWA Safaris. The advice given by the safari expert at SWA Safaris was great, the itinerary was worked out very professionally and our wishes were taken into account when planning the programme. After arriving in Windhoek, the tour guide (Lucia S.) welcomed us very nicely and looked after us very well during the whole trip. Lucia was very knowledgeable (country & people, wildlife, botany, politics) and gave us a very realistic picture of Namibia through her unobtrusive way of conveying information. She was always there when we had questions and took care of all the organisational things on the side. If we wanted to make another trip to Namibia, we would book again with SWA Safaris and would like to have Lucia as our tour guide again.

Very good and professional tour operator
5/5

The tour was very well organized, all information material was very nicely set up (online and print), the tour guide was excellent.
The communication with SWA Safaris was always helpful and very quick in responding.
The service provided was excellent.
The tour from Windhoek to Caprivi Strip and back was full of great accommodations and lodges and wonderful experiences.
Only one aspect was sometimes a bit too short and that was the time between the different destinations. In some cases, it took us longer to get there due to road conditions, photo stops etc. But all in all it was a wonderful experience.

5/5

Best trip of my life.
In May 2021 I decided to travel to Namibia with my best friend despite Covid. We were not only enthusiastic about this beautiful country with its endless expanse and contrasts, but also about the incredibly good organization of SWA Safaris. It was perfectly planned, from rental car to accommodation to transfers to excursions. They managed to combine all our wishes in this trip and even exceeded. We instantly decided that we will go to Namibia again, but only with SWA. No matter what is desired, these nice people can create a unique trip for everyone! Thanks very much!

5/5

Coming from Germany and being restricted to travel for such a long time, I felt overwhelmed by Namibia itself. The service and the knowledge of our driver/guide Shorty has been amazing. Everybody has been happy to welcome us and I really felt good. The group has been small and I enjoyed every minute of the tour!

5/5

I did a couple of day tours with SWA safaris and I think I couldn't make a better decision. The service provided by Tanja was simply impecable and the activities she planned for me were exactly what I was looking for.

She understood the experience I was hoping for and I can totally recommend SWA to anyone who wants to explore Namibia, no matter which budget they have.
