"Frans Indongo Lodge review"
"Frans Indongo Lodge"
The Lodge was luxurious and comfortable and the service was good. There was a largish group of tourists there when we were, and it may be the sort of place that attracts groups because of its facilities and ease of access.
Breakfast was very good. We bought our own food for dinner (from a nearby town) and the room was very spacious and comfortable to eat in." See all these reviews: 16n in Namibia
Astrid & Alf, the managers at Frans Indongo Lodge, have asked us to point out that they do not encourage their guests to bring food into their rooms. They are not equipped with self-catering facilities and for hygiene reasons they request that travelers only eat in the dining room.
Astrid and Alf also mentioned that they very seldom have large groups coming to stay with them and that they cater, in the main, for self-drive clients.

"Frans Indongo Lodge review"
We didn't do the game drive as we thought it would be a bit 'tame' after Etosha and it was nice sitting watching the waterhole instead.
The lodge is 15mins from a Cape Griffin conservation project which offered a very enjoyable and informative couple of hours (although we were informed that the project is moving to another farm which will mean it will be about an hrs. drive from the lodge - not so convenient)."

"Frans Indongo Lodge is the best"
had two trips, one game drive which we enjoyed althoughit is a very different setting to etendeka and etosha.
Felt the driver got a bit close to the rhinos. Not so concerned for our personal safetly, more that we were encroaching on their space.
Well organised trip to the CCF. If you do go to CCF make sure you see the orphans in the very large enclosures (has to be booked via lodge) rather than just those few in intensive care in the centre. Very relaxing last couple of days." See all these reviews: 9n in Namibia
