"Lions, Snakes and Giraffes at Sunset"
We went on the sundowner drive with Sam and highly recommend it. The sunset view over Fischers Pan was quite spectacular, with giraffes chewing on bones and rubbing necks while we enjoyed a cold G+T.
Also be sure to have your camera or sound recording device with you at dinner as the ladies choral group sing a brief song each night in their native Damara language and they are wonderful." See all these reviews: 22n in Namibia

"Etosha Aoba Lodge review"
"Etosha Aoba Lodge review"
he welcome from staff and management was very friendly and the food excellent. There were walking routes recommended for unguided strolls and a hide available overlooking a waterhole some distance from the main complex as well as one near the bar/restaurant area.
The whole aura was one of relaxation and calmness, with none of the 'corporate' and 'health and safety' focus of the contract run lodges. After the evening meal, with which there was an excellent choice of wines, the female staff performed several songs with evident pride and enjoyment, which were well received.
Overall an excellent stopover." See all these reviews: 17n in Namibia
"Etosha Aoba Lodge review"
It might be better for the staff to perfom their welcome after the meal, as those of us who had spent the day in Etosha were ready to eat at 7.00.
There are 2 entrances to the lodge, both have a drive of about 10ks - we managed to mis the one just outside the Etosha gate on the right as the name of the 'company' is more prominent than the name of the lodge." See all these reviews: 24n in Namibia; 11n in South Africa

"Etosha Aoba Lodge review"
The lodges are spread through the forest and breakfast and dinner are served on a nice, peaceful place behind the welcoming main building.
It is a convenient place to use as a base for game driving in the Etosha National Park, as well as an excellent place to relax after all your experiences in Etosha." See all these reviews: 11n in Namibia
