Great experience and was pleasantly surprised how nice the camping accommodations were. Great tour guide (Lucas) who was always looking out for our safety and well-being. We also appreciated Lucas’ flexibility and Discovery tours willingness to accommodate our vegan diet and also making sure what we paid for through Across Africa Tours was met. Appreciated they were upfront and clear on the expectations and what was included and not included in the package. It was nice they ensured we always had enough food.

Best tour companies for Namibia tours
Looking at our travelers' experiences, Chameleon Safaris stands out with guides like Abel, Morne and also Beanie who really make the trips special. People who've gone with them often mention getting great value and traveling in vehicles that are kept in top shape. Yes, there are some long drives - that's just part of covering the territory - but seeing wildlife and landscapes along the way makes up for the road time. Discovery Tours gets good marks for their planning, and their guide Seven knows his stuff, though some clients pointed out issues with meals and payment processes that could use attention. Blue Crane Safaris has built up a solid reputation too, with Me-Gusto and Eve-Frans earning praise for sharing deep local knowledge during their well-organized tours. Between the three companies, Chameleon seems to handle the basics particularly well - maintaining their vehicles, hiring guides who connect with travelers and also keeping their prices reasonable for what you get. While Discovery Tours and Blue Crane both offer quality experiences, those little details around food and payments at Discovery Tours might matter depending on what you're looking for in a safari operator.
Best places to start your Namibia tour
Windhoek kicks off 93% of our Namibian journeys, though some travelers like starting from coastal Swakopmund instead. Looking at our booking data, you'll want to lock in your dates about 50 days ahead, especially during prime wildlife seasons and for popular spots like Etosha. Most of our guests spend 10-14 days exploring Namibia's highlights, whether they're going guided or self-drive. The gravel roads are actually really well kept with good signs, though you'll definitely want a 4x4 for getting to some of the more remote places. Swakopmund gives you a nice cool break from the desert heat - our more active travelers love hitting the dunes for sandboarding, heading out on quad bikes and also watching seals, activities that consistently pull in top marks from guests looking for some action.

- Winter 2025 / 2026
Our winter safaris in Namibia from May through August really shine - especially the 7-day wildlife and desert tours that our travelers consistently rate highest. You'll get prime game viewing at Etosha when animals gather at the waterholes. Guides like Abel and Kalus know exactly where to spot black rhinos and elephants in that crisp morning light. The lodges are carefully chosen with floodlit waterholes right nearby, perfect for watching wildlife at night when the temperatures are mild. We also run excellent 6-day Etosha and Skeleton Coast combinations - you get both game drives and coastal exploration when the Atlantic fog creates these moody scenes along beaches dotted with shipwrecks.

- Spring 2026
September through November tours let you see Namibia spring to life after winter. Our 5-day tours focus on Sossusvlei dunes and coastal areas, with perfect timing for sunrise dune climbs before the heat kicks in. You'll reach Dead Vlei exactly when the morning light creates those stark contrasts with ancient camel thorn trees. Along the coast, you'll see flamingos at Walvis Bay lagoon during migration season and Cape fur seals gathering in their colonies. We've balanced the driving times nicely while fitting in desert walks, dune exploration and also local craft market visits.

- Summer 2026
For summer tours December through February, we adapt everything to make the most of cooler mornings and evenings. Our travelers particularly love the 7-day highlights tours with their early starts at Etosha's waterholes and late afternoon game drives when wildlife comes to drink. You'll stay at places with pools and shaded spots for those midday breaks. The 10-day premium tours are especially good in summer - think private verandas catching afternoon breezes while watching desert plains game. Our guides are experts at keeping everyone comfortable - scheduling hikes before it gets hot and planning sundowners with cool ocean views along the Skeleton Coast.

- Fall / Autumn 2026
March and April tours work really well for wildlife viewing as animals gather around the remaining water. Our 7-day safaris split time nicely between desert landscapes and Etosha's wildlife, while 6-day dune and wildlife combinations let you climb those towering red dunes in pleasant temperatures. Private tours are particularly good this time of year - guides can adjust things around the weather, maybe spending extra time at cheetah rehabilitation centers or visiting Himba villages. Our travelers love the permanent tented camps and lodges as bases, getting that perfect mix of outdoor exploration and comfortable amenities as the weather starts cooling down.
