"Camp Kipwe review"
The staff were all superb and we thoroughly enjoyed quality of the food in a super elevated dining room. The bar area and lounge area had a variety of very comfy chairs to while away a few hours. This was one of the best venues for sundowners on our trip and it is definitely worthwhile walking to the top (5 mins) where you will be greeted by the most amazing views.....as well as a bar and staff serving canapés.
The only thing that we feel detracts from this venue is the occasional smell of burnt wood from the wood burners that heat the water for each of the rooms." See all these reviews: 13n in Namibia
"A great stay in the great outdoors."
"Wonderful environment and cam"
The food was fantastic and service impeccable.
We all really loved our time here and could have stayed longer just to enjoy the beauty of it." See all these reviews: 15n in Namibia
"Great sunsets from the hilltop viewpoint"
Great guide for the visits to see the Desert Elephants and Petroglyphs. The visit to the elephants was particularly memorable and during this we had an opportunity to see the magnificent landscape of Damaraland finishing up with a drive up a dried up riverbed where we saw this magnificent Kudu bull.
Just a quick point the C35 was particularly rough, not just because of our problem on that road, the guide at Kipwe commented on it as well." See all these reviews: 14n in Namibia
"We loved Camp Kipwe"
The food was delicious, as we found throughout our visit to Namibia. The only thing we would have liked in hindsight was a mosquito net. The mosquitos were a bit pesky despite the insect repellant and 'Doom' spray, and I got quite badly bitten. That aside we would have loved to have stayed longer."

I would not recommend visiting until issues are sorted.
I have contacted Expert Africa about the issues." See all these reviews: 14n in Namibia
"Manager"
"Great camp in the rocks"
"Excellent"
Room cleaning was a little basic we thought and the camp would benefit from there being more of a 'host' manager. However it is a great place that we thoroughly enjoyed." See all these reviews: 14n in Namibia
