Namibia & Okavango Delta with Africa-Experience - Only few days left of 2024 and it is time to reflect on this "out of the ordinary" year we had!
One of the Highlights is certainly our trip to... read more Namibia & Botswana!
We came with some specific requests and Dirk of Africa-Experience understood very well what we were looking for. He has put together a fantastic private tour for us. 19 days Namibia tour in a private Land Cruiser with our driver guide Samuel and 6 days fly in fly out Okavango Delta safari.
Everything was well tough of and many details were very well taking care of! He explained to us why changing certain things would make the experience greater for us and he was right!
Our dietary needs were, in all lodges, always taking care of as well as the specified tents or villas we had chosen in different places.
We could not have asked for better. If Africa-Experience is available for our future destinations, we will certainly use their services and ask for Dirk!
Thank you for an unforgettable experience!

Amazing time on Marvels of Southern Africa! - Highly recommend the Marvels of Southern Africa tour which is predominantly in Namibia but also visits Botswana and Zimbabwe at the end. So many incredible memories!
Our guide... read more Sam was excellent with expert knowledge about the country, spotting wildlife impressively and arranging additional activities for us. We were staying in Zimbabwe after the tour, and for our extra days Sam arranged a trip into Zambia, an amazing Zambezi dinner cruise and transport to Hwange National park! Sam also had great rapport with the local people which was great for visiting the market in Windhoek and tribes along the way.
Sam recorded 3556 kms total driven! The journeys went quickly and were highly enjoyable with stunning landscape (desert, coast, mountains, savannah ). Sam would often point out wildlife on the way too! The vehicle was a 4x4 and everyone had a window seat, the roof also opened which was great for the safari in Etosha! We were in a group of 7 plus our guide and the group all got on well.
We went in October which is at the end of the dry season. Temperatures were often high in the 30s degrees C (think 38 highest for us). There were 2 days on the coast where things were briefly on the cooler side (e.g. 16 degrees C but sometimes felt cooler due to breeze).
The accommodation included lodges and tented 'camps'. Everywhere was very comfortable and mostly luxurious, the staff often welcomed us with cool flannels and ice tea, and we rarely carried our own bags! Dinner was often a buffet with the option of various game meats and always 3 courses.
Some of our highlights of the main 16 day Marvels of Southern Africa tour are outlined below, there were so many! Some things listed were optional extra activities arranged by Sam.
-Climbed Big Daddy dune and then ran down in the Namib desert! On the way back saw mountain zebra.
-Saw dolphins, seals and whale around Walvis Bay! Later had an amazing drive to where the desert meets the sea with incredible views and we also went quad-biking in the desert!
-Saw ancient rock carvings around Twyfelfontein and visited Damaraland living museum.
-Etosha national park had an incredible dusty landscape with occasional tornados seen in the background along with wildlife on safari including zebra, giraffe, black and white rhino, elephants and lions!
-On the Okavango river on the border with Angola we very briefly saw a large snake then later on had a boat trip on the border where we saw hippo and crocodile!
-Travelled through the Caprivi strip past lots of traditional African villages. Went on safari where we saw amazing wildlife including buffalo. Then another boat trip where we were close to hippo and crocodile again!
-Then Botswana where we had a boat trip on the Chobe river after arriving, then the next day was dedicated to safari in Chobe national park where we had absolutely incredible animal encounters, getting very close to elephant and lion and then a leopard in a tree, big 5 all seen!
-Victoria Falls where we visited markets in the town before seeing incredible views of the falls, then later went on a helicopter journey for more incredible views.

Although we contacted a bit late to ask them organize this trip for us for the peak season of August, Dirk managed to arrange everything and confirm our trip with all places and activities of our interest.
Even when we came across some difficulties and unexpected changes during our trip, they reacted immediately and solved everything successfully, so that we had a smooth trip. Communication/ support was provided throughout our trip.
At the same time, we were lucky enough to have Pattrick as our driver and guide for the whole trip.
We feel like he is our family member and we have so beautiful memories after all this time we spent together!
He was always polite, driving professionally and at the same time doing his best to ensure we are comfortable and enjoy our trip to the max.
Although our itinerary was quite long in terms of driving distances, he was tireless, sharing with us all his valuable knowledge about each place we visited, game viewing, the animals, birds, local traditions, cultural aspects etc.
Overall, we believe Namibia Experience is the most reliable and experienced company that can make your dream for a wonderful trip in Namibia come true! We definitely recommend them!
