Our first visit to Namibia
Namibia and 1 other country between 21 May 2016 and 6 Jun 2016
Some memorable experiences and excursions with knowledgeable, professional guides at sensible prices.
All the Expert Africa arrangements worked perfectly, and your descriptions of lodges, activities etc were accurate and realistic. We were particularly impressed by the Wilderness Safari lodges and their people. No anxieties or disappointments whatsoever. Sabina was helpful and knowledgeable, but never 'pushy' - which was one factor which swung us towards you and away from another operator.
Would certainly recommend you, just as you were recommended to us by a friend."

Damaraland Camp
"Stunning desert location!!!"
Super 'room'. Star-gazing session, tribal songs at dinner, good food and wines.
Bush-breakfast, desert elephant safari, mountain-top sundowners and Boma dinner memorable highlights.
Excellent and knowledgeable safari guide.
Traditional tribal song farewell - quite moving."

Anderssons Camp, Namibia (this camp has since closed)
"Good rather than super."
Not the 'intimacy' of Kulala or Damaraland, and somewhat less striking location."

Mushara Lodge
"Lovely Lodge"
Excellent room, excellent meals, Very restful and enjoyable."

Okonjima Plains Camp

But excellent safaris and a guide who put a great deal of effort into tracking and viewing leopard and cheetah.
Room rather querky, but all mod cons and everything worked properly."

Lovely staff, excellent dinner and breakfast on raised deck overlooking water-hole.
A very relaxed, comfortable place to stay."

River Crossing
"All as previous."

Ilala Lodge
"VERY COMFORTABLE"
Staff well trained, friendly and EXCELLENT (except the bar-man who was a bit cold). Excellent menu and pleasant outdoor dining.
Very nice standard room with private terrace from where we watched the warthogs. Memorable viewing of awesome Victoria Falls.
Despite the almost constant buzzing of sight-seeing helicopters over the hotel would stay there again."
Pleasant room, everything worked, nice staff, very pleasant meal in relaxed, warm dining room with log fire."
