All the accommodation booked by Cardboard Box was very good.
5/5

Anita, the consultant who dealt with our booking was excellent. She always came back immediately with an answer to any queries. She gave first class service and we received first class accommodation. Would have no hesitation in using their services in the future.

The Cardboard Box is the best travel agency we have used. Allison, who booked our trip, provided useful tips & improvements – and their website is very useful website since it also includes general info about Namibia

5/5

My husband and I traveled for a week around Namibia. We weren't really sure what was a feasible itinerary with regards to driving distances or what kind of vehicle we would need, so we reached out to a number of companies. Allison at Cardboard Box was the first to respond, and she responded with such a thoughtful, tailored response that we decided to stick with her. She was great to work with. She always responded within 24 hours, and took time to address all our questions and concerns (I never got a single canned response).

One of the other reasons we used Cardboard Box is because their website is chock full of helpful information about travelling in Namibia. It was sort of our unofficial guide book when we were planning the trip. We also really liked the guide book they included in our welcome pack about Namibia. It was nice to have a little more information about the country and wildlife. Another note -- Allison strongly recommended the full coverage on the vehicle. We did get a crack in the windscreen from gravel, and it was nice to not worry about it. No flat tires though!

I'd whole-heartedly recommend Cardboard box to other travelers!

5/5

The Cardboard Box website is one of the best travel platforms we have ever come across and we have already told many people about the site. We couldn't have had a better consultant than Anita. She was always very professional and responded to our queries/requests immediately. Her enthusiasm was extremely motivating for us and we were so excited about our trip from the moment we had our first contact with Anita.

We had a wonderful experience dealing with the Cardboard Box. Our first contact with Anita was more than one year before our trip started and we were convinced by Anita from the beginning. She is a real asset to the Cardboard Box Travel Shop

Excellent service, highly recommended
5/5

I would highly recommend Cardboard Box Travel Shop to anyone planning a trip to Namibia. Our consultant Norelle was fantastic and responded quickly to any queries that we had. Our bookings were handled very efficiently and Norelle made helpful suggestions and provides useful advice. Also, providing a local SIM card for us to use in Namibia was a nice touch and again very helpful. Overall I find it hard to find any fault with their service. Highly Recommended.

Excellent, reliable partner to plan you travel through Namibia
5/5

We have spent 3-weeks traveling around Namibia (6000 km). The trip has been organized by Allison from The Cardboard Box Travel Shop. Everything was perfectly arranged - car rental with great insurance package, trip plan, all accommodation. I can fully recommend The Carboard Box as a reliable partner and Allison in particular as a person fully engaged, very helpful as long as planning is concerned and giving a timely response whenever asked.

Two week driving tour of Namibia
5/5

Excellent experience with Cardboard Box! I was trying to arrange a two-week driving tour of Namibia in the high season well in advance, and from Europe it was an organisational nightmare. Anita at Cardboard Box very quickly understood what I was trying to achieve with the budget available, put together an excellent itinerary, based on an obviously deep knowledge of the country, and went the extra mile with helpful suggestions to adapt and tweak to fit my requests and accomodation availability. When I had to cancel at short notice for family reasons, they were equally professional. When I put the trip together again, will definitely use Cardboard Box. Can't recommend them highly enough!

Awesome travel experience to Namibia and Botswana!
5/5

The Cardboard Box service was very efficient. Lilly did everything and more to make it easy, even revising connections as my husband didn't have enough visa pages and was delayed a day.
Lilly provided us with all the information, and more, that we needed and the vouchers and pre-departure emails contained even more information. Lilly is a gem. I suggest you value her, give her a raise and do everything you can to retain her!!!

Excellent service from Cardboard Box Travel Shop.
5/5

We came across the Cardboard Box website doing a search for self-drives in Namibia The website was comprehensive and very useful. It was great to see suggested self-drives and get ideas from there, and to look at profiles of the lodges. Once we contacted the Cardboard Box, Steny was very helpful and customized our itinerary and bookings to just what we wanted. Very helpful information was sent to us before we started our travel. Steny was responsive to email inquires. Cardboard Box was great to deal with and everything went smootly.
