My May 2022 trip

Namibia and 1 other country between 6 May 2022 and 21 May 2022

Trip rating: Excellent
"Absolutely fantastic holiday.

Twice postponed due to covid it did not disappoint when we finally got there.

Everything went extremely smoothly, it was both exciting and relaxing at the same time and we cannot wait to go back.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

No, I think the service is well above and beyond what can be expected and so was our trip"

Great Namibia holiday

Namibia between 28 Aug 2011 and 12 Sep 2011

Trip rating: Excellent
"Great holiday, lovely relaxed start followed by a fantastic journey into the remote Kunene region.

Generally very helpful, attentive and informative staff and really appreciated being able to look "behind the scenes" a bit. Kunene conservancy safari's ethical concept will hopefully be successful in bringing money into this region. Would love to come back some day for one of their other tours and will certainly come back to Namibia as soon as it can be arranged.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

Can't think of anything, places suggested were excellent and really took our requirements into account, communication was very good throughout."

Guided Safari (Not currently featured by Expert Africa)

"Insightful journey into Kunene"

6 nights Arrived 5 Sep 2011
"Etambura lodge is a great place in a fantastic location with breathtaking views and a fabulous architectural design. Landscape in Kunene was very impressive and seeing game in that set-up was brilliant. Particularly loved the rhino tracking. Also, getting insights into how the local communities live and conservancies work was very informative and interesting.

Catered camping was excellently organised and very comfortable. Staff was brilliant. Due to long distances and poor roads a lot of time is spend in the car - don't know whether it would be possible to minimize this by replacing some of the game viewing by car with walks?"
