My Sep 2024 trip

Namibia between 6 Sep 2024 and 30 Sep 2024

Trip rating: Excellent
"We thoroughly enjoyed our trip with great scenery. We stayed in so many different places and had positive experiences at them all. The holiday was a great mix and the walking gave us time to take it all at a slower pace. We saw more wildlife than we expected. The guides and the staff were all passionate about Namibia and very helpful and friendly.

The driving was very easy.

Anything we would have changed? Probably an overnight stop somewhere after Tok Tokkie and then the last 2 nights at Otjimbondona as it was a very long drive after finishing the morning walking."

"Mundulea Reserve review"

3 nights Arrived 9 Sep 2024
"We were the only guests staying and walked with Bruno morning and evening never covering the same ground twice. His reserve is a real credit to him and we learnt a great deal from him from tracking animal footprints to the flora and fauna. We thoroughly enjoyed the hospitality of the bush camp and are so glad we had the chance to experience this unique place with a passionate owner sharing his experiences and knowledge."

"Quite a contrast after our bush camp but very well run small camp with good waterhole viewing. We went on a game drive on the reserve in the morning with great lion sightings and then a late afternoon Etosha drive in the late afternoon. Both drives was just us and the guide."

2 nights Arrived 24 Sep 2024
"Thoroughly enjoyed this trail. We were with 3 other couples of different nationalities and the group dynamics worked. Sebastian was a great guide, we were learnt more about the small desert life and the stars which we studied the 1st night with lights out after dinner. Sleeping under the stars in the desert was a great experience and we enjoyed the fresh coffee morning wake up call."
