Travel reviews by Mr & Mrs H from Worcs

"A relaxed start to our trip with very welcoming staff, a short drive into Windhoek but parking is easy in the centre."

"Sam was an interesting and attentive host, staff were friendly and helpful.

The restaurant at the Hansa Hotel was very good and much better than the very touristy Tug."

"Location was superb, an excellent break on our drive from Swakopmund along the Skeleton Coast."

"The one error on our itinerary was that the pick up point for Entendeka is now at Palmwag Lodge not as given in our notes.

However, the camp and staff were superb. Dennis was an excellent host and Bonny an excellent guide with his knowledge of the local area. All the staff were excellent as was the food. Dennis has a telescope set up and we twice had the opportunity to share his knowledge of the night sky. The guided walks were very good with the fascinating geology of the area and evidence of wildlife.

On the game drives we saw elephants (distant), lions (closer), as well several giraffes and lots of mountain zebras and various antelopes."

"Having read some of the reviews we were doubtful about staying here but were very glad that we did.

The food was good value, the room had all that we needed and the service was good plus the big bonus of the floodlit waterhole. One evening we watched 4 rhinos and their young, the next day a large herd of elephants visited as we got back in the late afternoon.

An excellent base for exploring the western side of Etosha."

"A short drive from the eastern gate of Etosha. Luxurious accommodation and excellent food."

"An excellent end to our trip. The activities were good value and our guide was very knowledgeable - the chance to get close to cheetahs (on foot) and leopards (in the safari vehicle) was superb.

Although obviously a tourist attraction the enclosed areas are large enough that there is no feeling of a safari park experience. Very comfortable room, we stayed in a Bush View room which was an apt description as it had uninterrupted views of the bush, and some wandering wildlife. Some areas with walking trails which were good.

The emphasis has changed from rescuing to an education and conservation programme."
