FLEXIBLE AND WELL ORGANISED
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!

Unforgettable Safari Experience with OZON Light Tours and the Amazing Guide, Albert!
I highly recommend the OZON Light Tour and our guide, Albert! I originally chose OZON because Nuhu provided a super detailed breakdown of all the costs for each activity, which made everything really transparent. He was also super responsive, professional, and helpful. Plus, for the same itinerary and accommodations, their prices were way better than the big agencies.
After the trip, I just had to recommend our guide, Albert. He was such a genuine and fun guy, and incredibly knowledgeable. He knew everything about the animals, plants, and even local traditions, which made the whole experience so much more interesting. His skills in tracking animals were seriously impressive. One of the best moments was in Ndutu when we wanted to see lions feeding. While other drivers were frantically chasing the lions (which not only ruined their view but also disturbed the animals), Albert used his experience and deep understanding of lion behavior to get us in the perfect spot. Because of that, we got a front-row seat to watch a lion family feast for almost two hours!
Another amazing experience was seeing the wildebeest cross the Ndutu River. Some guides just rushed straight at them and ended up scaring them off. But Albert knew exactly where to go and got us to the perfect spot at just the right time.
Overall, the whole trip was incredible. I also highly recommend Ndutu—it’s great for off-road experiences, and you can get super close to the animals. Everything was just perfect, and if I ever go back, I’m 100% booking with Albert again!

We had three different guides, all were great.
The safari was amazing. We saw so much, every animal you could see we saw. The accommodation and food were absolutely fantastic.
In terms of communication, it was quite poor. Day to day on the tour we didn’t have clear instructions of how many hours we would be driving in between destinations and we had one day with no communication in between switching drivers based on how many days our safari was. We were confused and we were dropped off at our hotel around noon with nothing around and nothing to do. The biggest thing I would say is take money out before your tour. Because it’s cash only and the atms in Kenya only dispense 40,000 ksh at a time. It was very frustrating on the morning of the safari with other people on the tour waiting for us to take money out. Also take out extra money for souvenirs and if you want any coffees, water, or alcohol in any accommodation it is extra, and some places only take cash.
The experience other than that was really amazing. A once in a lifetime experience.
