"My September 2024 trip to Namibia"
"My Sep 2024 trip"
He suggested a series of memorably good lodges and camps with sensible more basic options for when we simply needed a comfortable guesthouse for a night rather than luxury lodge. He discussed and booked a series of excellent activities for us and we kept in contact throughout the period up to the trip.
To demonstrate the great level of service. We managed to leave an ipad at Damaraland Camp and between the wonderful camp staff and Tom and his colleague Tracey's efforts and ingenuity they managed to organise its return to us back in London - this was definitely above and beyond!.
All in all it was a wonderful holiday, faultlessly organised and we would very highly recommend Expert Africa." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 13 on a Namibia trip

"My Sep 2024 trip"
Namibia is stunning, both the landscapes and the wildlife. We had amazing food, amazing camps, some great guides and it was just the best experience.
I’d highly recommend it to anyone and, for us, flying seems like the best way to see as much as you can in a limited amount of time. It is all run so beautifully and it is unbelievable how these camps can exist in such remote places, and be top notch.
The attention to detail is superb, it really was fab, we absolutely loved Namibia." Read full review: 12 nights in Africa; 11 on a Namibia trip
"My Sep 2024 trip"
The driving was very easy.
Anything we would have changed? Probably an overnight stop somewhere after Tok Tokkie and then the last 2 nights at Otjimbondona as it was a very long drive after finishing the morning walking." Read full review: 24 nights in Africa; 23 on a Namibia trip

P. S. I forgot to mention the rock art after we left Camp Kipwe, extremely interesting., and the thousands of flamingos at Walvis Bay. What a sight !

"My Sep 2024 trip"
The EuropCar Toyota Hilux vehicles were comfortable and robust and gave confidence on the corrugated roads (Landcruiser not needed) and staff both ends of the trip were terrific.
The Wilderness Meet and Greet Service at Windhoek Airport was tremendously helpful getting SIM cards, ATM and assistance with hire car, coolbox was really appreciated. If you're travelling in convoy, consider using walkie talkies as phone coverage was often very limited.
Expert Africa (Tom Morris and Chris McIntyre) were very responsive in dealing with our missed flights from Frankfurt to Windhoek, we felt very reassured by their involvement and actions." Read full review: 22 nights in Africa; 13 on a Namibia trip
"My Sep 2024 trip"
We were 2 couples with a vehicle per couple so every night we were delighted to see each other again!
It was incredibly reassuring knowing Expert Africa had our backs - and we did need their help and expertise while there, so were very grateful for it." Read full review: 22 nights in Africa; 14 on a Namibia trip
