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!

Blue Crane Safaris, and our guide Me-Gusto Busch, left nothing to be desired! Amazing service.
5/5

If you're looking for an amazing experience with knowledgeable guides, you must book with Blue Crane Safaris. This tour far exceeded our expectations. Everything - from the drives, scenery, wildlife, accommodation, restaurants, etc. - was beyond anything we had imagined. Our guide looked out at every corner to make sure we were safe, enjoying ourselves, and experiencing Namibia to the fullest extent. I would definitely book with Blue Crane Safaris if I return to Namibia.

19 day self drive through Namibia and Botswana
5/5

A very positive experience with Blue Crane. We had a wonderful 19 day self-drive through Namibia and Botswana, all arranged with Blue Crane. The 2
vehicles were very comfortable and perfect for handling the occasional significant deep sand or mud. The accommodation was mostly great (apart from places where there wasn’t any better to be had). The agency was always available and responsive to any questions, including assisting us to replace the loss of both number plates off one vehicle very efficiently just prior to crossing the border. A basically hassle free, fun safe adventure for a bunch of middle aged people :)
Also good value for money.
Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience in Namibia with Blue Crane Safaris
5/5

Excellent service all round - couldn’t recommend them highly enough. From initial communications with Derek who helped to advise us through a suggested itinerary and route, was accommodating to our budget, happy to make any changes and provide alternatives when asked, and provided ongoing communications and information up until our departure date. The trip itself was fantastic - our guide Frank could not have been more knowledgeable, kind and helpful, and certainly contributed to make our holiday such a memorable experience. Namibia itself is a lovely country. Thank you Blue Crane Safaris!

Excellent tour with Blue Crane
5/5

We went in a 15 day highlights of Namibia tour for small group in November. It turned out that we were only 2 as some others had to cancel, so it was like a private tour for us. When arranging the trip Derek always answered our questions immediately and it all went were smoothly to book. Our guide Sammy was excellent in every way, a lot of knowledge and experience and a good sense of humour. He made sure everything went smoothly and did everything to make our trip a wonderful experience. All the lodges and hotels were beautiful as well as the food being top class. We travelled over 4.000 km and saw an amazing variety of scenery and landscapes, as well as learning about the different cultures in different parts of the county. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Blue Crane Safaris

Very professional tour operator providing perfectly organised tour with excellent guide
5/5

Very professional tour operator from first contact to end of the tour, with excellent and punctual support in the organisation.
The tour itself (11 days with guide) was very well designed, we really enjoyed the perfect organisation, the amazing lodges and the delicious food everywhere we went (also special dietary requirements were taken into account).

We had a very knowledgable guide with whom we felt very safe in the long drives and everywhere we went, and who always provided explanations about the fauna, flora and geology of Namibia. Thanks to him we were able to learn so much about the country and enjoy things we would not have noticed had we travelled alone. We were able to spot all wildlife we had expected to see...and much more beyond that.

With Blue Crane Safaris we had an unforgettable holiday in Namibia and would definitely travel with them again next time in Namibia!
