    Our trip to Namibia was a unique experience, accompanied by our great guide Phinahas, who gave us many impressions of the country, the wildlife and the plants in a diplomatic and competent manner. Phinahas deserves 4 stars for his guidance and commitment!

    · June 1st, 2024
    The trip was very varied and perfectly organized. The itinerary goes through 3 countries and covers almost 4,000 km. This means that on some days we drove for many hours and set off early. Even on these long days, regular breaks were taken and there was always something exciting to observe. On the last day (according to the program) we were supposed to reach the airport at around 17h00 and the official end was 18h00. We had therefore opted for a flight at 23:00 instead of 19:00. Other guests had flights at 19:00 and we arrived at the airport at 15:00. The airport has a lot of "local" stores, so the time passed quickly. The tour guides are impressive and have a broad and detailed knowledge of the different countries, cultures, wildlife, nature, astronomy... In addition, they have excellent organizational skills, are safe drivers and can conjure up really good menus with the mobile kitchen. We were completely satisfied with the tour and our expectations were exceeded. The tour is highly recommended for nature and animal lovers looking for a little adventure.
