March 2017 trip
Namibia between 11 Mar 2017 and 25 Mar 2017
"Our trip was fabulous. Only one of us can drive but we still enjoyed ourselves and didn't find the distances too far.
One of the highlights was that the trip was to celebrate a special birthday and several of the hotels kindly acknowledged this.
There is so much great stuff to see and we didn't feel too rushed spending a couple of nights in each place.
Marked up map was very useful."

BullsPort Lodge and Farm
"Friendly farm with well marked trails."
1 night
Arrived
12 Mar 2017
"We enjoyed Bullsport as a stop between Windhoek and Souselvlai.
The farm is run by a friendly family and meals were served communally. We enjoyed doing a couple of the trails and found the descriptions and maps provided by the farm really helpful for that."

Kulala Desert Lodge
"Amazing desert stop"
2 nights
Arrived
13 Mar 2017
"Kulala was great- the patio overlooking the watering hole for eating and drinking was beautiful. We loved the food too.
The staff were all very friendly and welcoming.
Our only small niggle was that although we did the lodge organised trip into the national park (to avoid the drive to the road and main entrance) we didn't go straight to the main dune so we missed sunrise there and people who had come through the main entrance overtook us which seemed a waste of the shortcut.
We enjoyed trying sleeping on the roof (not for the whole night).
The pool area was delightful. I didn't want to leave!"

Okaukuejo Camp
"Inside the national park"
2 nights
Arrived
19 Mar 2017
"One of the few camps in the park and it tends to be well rated because of the watering hole. However in March at the end of the wet season the animals didn't come to the watering hole.
The camp has quite a government run feel and was nowhere near as good as other places we stayed in Namibia. The food was very average.
We did a couple of game drives and they were good for viewing game."
