A perfect trip

Namibia between 6 Oct 2011 and 28 Oct 2011

Trip rating: Excellent
"There is not one place that we would have omitted or reduced the length of our stay.

To improve the trip would involve increasing the length of the trip by adding additional locations - not really possible this time.

Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:

No, not really."

Okaukuejo Camp

Okaukuejo Camp

"Crowded but excellent location"

3 nights Arrived 9 Oct 2011
"This is a very crowded location but has a very active waterhole visible from the camp.

It is also probably the best place to stay if you want to see special birds in Etosha although one of the lodges outside the Park may be equally convenient and more peaceful. It depends on travel times into and out of the Park"

Onguma Forest Camp

Onguma Forest Camp

"Peaceful and a beautiful location."

2 nights Arrived 13 Oct 2011
"Our first intention was to stay at Namutoni but the camp was apparently fully booked 7 months before our visit so we had to stay at Aoba which is just outside Etosha Park.

We could have travelled into the Park from Aoba but the Lodge was so pleasant that we spent all our time at the Lodge. This suited us because we are keen on birdwatching."

Ndhovu Safari Lodge

"Peaceful and a beautiful location."

3 nights Arrived 18 Oct 2011
"This is the place to stay if you want close views of the Okavango River. It was around 40 C in the Bush but the Lodge is situated close to the River and in riverine forest so it was always comfortable around the Lodge.

We had 3 nights here and did not want to leave."
