2 nights
Arrived
12 Aug 2008
"Swawkopmund was cold and bleak when we arrived and the room felt cold, good value for a B&B with a helpful proprietor.
The kayak trip at Walvis Bay was fantastic and I am so glad we booked this in advance, it was in many ways one of the highlights of the trip.

"wqe really liked this lodge, the view is stupendous.
Food was good and the elephant spotting drive great fun.

Arrived
18 Aug 2008
"A very nice place to stay on it's own private reserve, friendly staff, good food, really good accomodation.
The night game drive was great if a bit scary, despite being told that lions do not try to get into vehicles they were so close at night that you still felt scared - in an enjoyable way!"

1 night
Arrived
20 Aug 2008
"We only stayed one night and I wish we had stayed longer, about 2.5 - 3 hours from Windhoek it is a good place to start or finish, the views from the accomodation are superb, the trip to see the nearby rock paintings and the sun set over the mountains was excellent."
