Reviews of Small Group tours to Namibia
- Classic Namibia 12 Days DEPARTING SATURDAYS **Sustainable Approach to Travel
I had an amazing time I finally visited Namibia with my husband on the twelve day classic camping safari. The tour surpassed our expectations from the quality of service by Calisto our guide. He showed us many wild animals, taught us about Namibia's history, culture and ecosystems and so much more. Camping in the wild was exciting, sharing great food, nice stories under the open African sky is so rejuvenating. It was much fun exploring Namibia in tranquility away from the crowds. My appreciation goes to the WAT team for going out of their way to host us and sparing no effort to ensure our delight.
- Journeys: Wonders of Namibia National Geographic Journeys
Beautiful country. Tour hits all the most known places. Roads aren't great so the long hours in the bus got tiring. Guide good at planning frequent stops.
John was a fantastic guide, knowledgeable, safe, and had eagle eyes for spotting animals. All the accommodations were clean, spacious, and comfortable. We had a lot of fun throughout the trip from climbing dunes to spotting animals.

What our customers ask about Namibia Small Group Tours
What is the typical group size for Namibia small group tours?
Namibia small group tours generally consist of 4-8 travelers which ensures everyone gets a window seat during game drives and transportation. The smaller setting creates a more relaxed pace and lets guides adjust plans based on the group's interests. At locations like Etosha National Park guides can spend extra time at waterholes when wildlife appears or linger longer at Sossusvlei's dunes for photography. As one TourRadar traveler shared: "The group size was perfect - we started as three people and then were just two which allowed us to have some influence on the journey and timing at different locations."
What type of accommodation can I expect on a small group tour in Namibia?
Accommodations range from well-appointed lodges to authentic desert camping experiences. Travelers stay in properties like the coastal Hotel A La Mer in Swakopmund the wildlife-focused Okaukuejo Resort in Etosha and desert camps near the Sesriem area. A TourRadar traveler noted "the Agama Lodge and its infinity pool were AMAZING while Halali village in Etosha provided incredible waterhole viewing opportunities right from our accommodation."
How much interaction is there between group members on small group tours?
The small group format naturally brings travelers together through shared daily activities. Groups often bond during early morning game drives in Etosha National Park sunset dune climbs in Sossusvlei and meals at places like Hotel A La Mer. One TourRadar traveler mentioned: "Made friends saw amazing landscapes and wildlife and loved it!"
What personalized experiences are possible with a small group tour in Namibia?
Smaller groups allow guides to tailor experiences to individual interests. This flexibility means private visits to Himba villages near Kamanjab extended photo sessions at Deadvlei or adjusting schedules for thorough exploration of sites like Kolmanskop Ghost Town. A TourRadar traveler shared: "Our guide could customize our experience like spending extra time at Dead Vlei for photography instead of rushing through with larger groups."
What level of guiding can I expect on a small group Namibia tour?
Tours are led by certified English-speaking guides with deep knowledge of Namibian wildlife culture and landscapes. These experts provide detailed context at sites like Fish River Canyon and share insights about desert adaptations at Kolmanskop. A TourRadar traveler commented: "Our guide Immanuel was extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife in Etosha and knew exactly where to find the animals. His expertise made our safari experience exceptional."
How do meal arrangements work on small group tours in Namibia?
Tours typically cover daily breakfast picnic lunches and select dinners. Guides often prepare meals at scenic locations such as traditional BBQ dinners under the stars at Sesriem campsite near Sossusvlei. A TourRadar traveler reported: "Johnny was excellent at cooking and we enjoyed great BBQ and stew. The food quality was consistently high throughout the journey."
