Tour was good - distances are significant though .. would eliminate Walvisbay to spend a bit more time in Swakopmund. Some discussions with the guide about what expenses were included or not (eg lunches) - this should be made clear upfront, but all in all a good time!

Rasmus • traveled in May
My family has just come back from doing a spectacular safari in Namibia. The safari took us through Etosha NP, Swakompund, Sesriem and Sossusvlei hosted by guide Steinner. Planning for the trip was smooth as Anna from admin was only one email/message away. Main highlights of the safari are the elephants in Etosha, Etosha pan shimmering in the sun, biking at Swakompund and the alluring beauty of Namibia. Hotel and lodges were nice and had good food. It was my ideal vacation!!!
