My Nov 2015 trip
Namibia between 6 Nov 2015 and 21 Nov 2015
"A fantastic trip that surpassed our high expectations. I don't think that there is anything that we would have done differently.
The highlights were Erongo Wilderness Lodge, the drive across Etosha National Park, the drive down the Skeleton Coast, Swakopmund, the trip to Sandwich Harbour and last, but very definitely not least, Sossusvlei Desert Lodge.
Namibia proved a wonderful country to visit, with a very welcoming people, all of whom seemed to have a great sense of humour.
Suggestions to help us improve our trips or our service:
No, we wouldn't hesitate to recommend Namibia as a destination and Expert Africa as the company to organise a visit."

Mushara Bush Camp

9 Nov 2015
"Excellent location, close to the entrance to the park and with comfortable and very well thought out rooms.
However nobody seemed to be in charge, and although staff were friendly service was a bit hit and miss. Although in the case of the food it was probably more miss than hit.
The guide on the game drive however was excellent."

Etosha Safari Lodge
"Etosha Safari Lodge review"
1 night
Arrived
11 Nov 2015
"A truly wonderful setting close to Etosha. The rooms however were distinctly average, with just one dispenser marked 'shampoo' (we were told it was shower gel) in the rather over-sized shower-room.
Food and service was slightly impersonal as this establishment clearly caters for large groups.
However as a one-night stop-over this place was absolutely fine."

This was particularly reflected in the food which compared to other lodges was relatively poor."

Sossusvlei Desert Lodge
"Sossusvlei Desert Lodge review"
3 nights
Arrived
18 Nov 2015
"Faultless. Sossusvlei Desert Lodge obviously ticks all the boxes in terms of setting, accommodation, facilities, food etc, but it was the attention to detail that made it so special.
You really felt that this was your holiday and everything was built around making it an exceptional experience.
A truly great way to finish the holiday and the only thing we didn't like was having to leave."
