Namibia is a must see.
Namibia between 11 Sep 2015 and 21 Sep 2015
"An amazing trip to an amazing country. All of the air and road transfers on my complex itinerary worked without a hitch.
Best place was Hoanib Skeleton Camp, location, quality of accommodation, food and service were all excellent, closely followed by Desert Rhino Camp for the experience and amazing scenery on the safari drives. I wouldn't rush back to visit Windhoek and I certainly wouldn't bother staying at River Crossing which although set in lovely location was pretty average.
Namibia deserves great recognition for its landscapes and its wildlife; fabulous place to visit."

"Wonderful experience staying at this camp, the landscapes on the Etendeka plateau are amazing, the guides are knowledgeable and accommodating and the service at the camp is excellent.
Finally, the trekkers found and got us as close as possible to the black rhino."

Anderssons Camp, Namibia (this camp has since closed)
"Convenient location, friendly service."

"Set on the Ongava reserve which has abundant wildlife and the camp has its own waterhole which attracts lots of wildlife you can see from the terrace. Also very convenient location for visiting Etosha. Great guides who work really hard to make sure you see the wildlife you want to.
Slight negatives are that the accomodation is a bit more basic and tired over the other camps and the quality of the food was quite average but service was always with a smile."
