My Jun 2014 trip
Namibia between 21 Jun 2014 and 3 Jul 2014
"It was problem free from beginning to end and different from anything else we have done in Southern Africa before so achieved our aim.
It was good to be able to leave some bags in the Wilderness Safari office in Windhoek, where we received a great welcome and good service."

Little Kulala
"Little Kulala review"
2 nights
Arrived
23 Jun 2014
"Very luxurious lodge with excellent service all round. Fantastic location and high quality food. Really liked the evening entertainment provided by the floodlit area around the watering hole attracting visitors whilst dining and when our guide took us scorpion hunting before dinner, equipped with UV light.
The dunes were obviously the reason we were there and our activities there did not disappoint."

Desert Rhino Camp
"Desert Rhino Camp review"
3 nights
Arrived
25 Jun 2014
"Another great camp in a brilliant location with spectacular landscapes. Very comfortable - loved the hot water bottles for cold early mornings and evenings out driving as well as for bed warmers.
The rhino tracking was amazing - the briefing before we went was iinstructive and the work being done with the RCT is impressive. We also really enjoyed seeing both desert lions and elephants.
Food was excellent and our evening at the camp fire in the desert was a highlight."

Mundulea Reserve
"Mundulea Reserve review"
3 nights
Arrived
28 Jun 2014
"What a very different experience from anything else we have done in Southern Africa before, but an amazing few days amidst an extraordinary project to create a reserve as it would have been before it had been farmed.
Bruno's knowledge is second to none - breakfast, lunch and dinner time was a feast of simple but delicious food as well as an opportunity to hear more of the story of Mundulea, as well as understanding so much more about conservation, poaching and other subjects relevant to Namibia and it's neighbours.
Not for the faint hearted given all the walking in the bush and essential to take good walking shoes or boots, but so rewarding for the effort that goes in,"

"See previously. [Ed: see below! ]"
Excellent
When we arrived about on Sunday, we were disappointed to discover that the restaurant was closed so no food was available. It would have been helpful to have known about that in advance."
