Reviews of safaris to Okonjima Nature Reserve

"Some gripes but overall a great holiday with lots of highlights (Ongava lions at waterhole, Etosha, Skeleton Coast, Sossuvlei, Swakopmund, kayaking with seals).

Not sure we could always see where our £6500.00 went, especially compared with similar trips. Luckily we had a great group - not sure we would have enjoyed as much if we had been with some of the other people we met along the way!" Read full review: 17 nights in Africa; 3 on a Namibia trip

"Unfortunately we had quite a lot of hassle unrelated to our holiday. Our mobile phones would not work due to incorrect information from UK. So had to sort that out at great expense from Namibia.

Also missed air conditioning when we did not have it as Irene found it very hot in the middle of day. If accommodation does not have a/c they should at least have mesh on all windows so that one can open them after dark when it does go much cooler.

We both found that Malarone did not suit us so had to stop taking it. Were disappointed in Caprivi would not make the effort to go again, particularly as we have already been to Botswana and the Delta.

We have used you [Ed: Expert Africa] several times and have always found your staff helpful and knowledgeable and if they don't know an area they will find someone in the office who does." Read full review: 14 nights in Africa; 14 on a Namibia trip

A little more information on the weather. Did not expect it to be so consistently cold every evening except for our first evening in Windhoek or to be so windy." Read full review: 16 nights in Africa; 9 on a Namibia trip

"Exceeded all our expectations and got better as the trip progressed. Well worth the huge outlay.

Never to be forgotton but will loose all our friends raving about it!

Hard to think how you could have improved it. I think it was a shame we did not listen to the advice regarding our last camp in Botswana and feel she should have told us how little wild life ther was at Selinda. She did inform us the wild life was not as good here but there was very little." Read full review: 33 nights in Africa; 16 on a Namibia trip

"We have visited South Africa before but this was first visit to Namibia. We loved it.

At one of the resorts Wilderness Safaris left a questionnaire asking us to comment on our visit, and I think 'life changing' was one of the available options. We avoided this classification as we thought it was completely over the top. But now we're home with time to think about it, we're not so sure...."

"Fantastic :-)" Read full review: 19 nights in Africa; 13 on a Namibia trip

"I was here 12 months ago, and despite that the whole trip never once became boring even though I had visited some of the places recently. If anything, the standards of service and of cooking have improved.

Every time I visit Namibia something or someone unexpected turns up such as the sign by the side of the dirt road in the 'middle of nowhere' that said 'Take a break - Teas available round the corner'. Thus it was that we met Philip who had converted an old farmhouse into a B&B and whose place was the only building around for many a mile.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

Just one: please get some of the lodges to buy an astronomical telescope - they only cost about £200 for a decent one and it would allow guests to benefit from another of Namibia's assets - its night sky.

Gwynneth was absolutely wonderful in arranging this holiday. Many thanks." Read full review: 13 nights in Africa; 10 on a Namibia trip

"Because we had done a very simalar trip before our hopes and expectations were high,and we were not disapointed.......
apart from two lodges which did not quite meet our high hopes,it was the perfect trip......

From 4 years ago we have found Namibia & it's people much more friendly & outward going, especiall at the fuel stations where it seems that the oil companies have made large investments in buildings and most definately staff.

We will recommend (& have done so already) both yourself Sabina & Expert Africa . . . Thank you once again.
