Expertly organized tour and so much fun
Just returned from a 2 week tour around Namibia with Nature Travel and had the best time!
Stewart was a wonderful guide…so much fun and knowledgeable about everything from geology to flora, fauna, history, astronomy and more!
Personally, my favorite place to stay was Damaraland. Twyfelfontein Adventure Camp is AMAZING. I overheard at least 3 other groups say that they wish they could stay there forever. It was magical to be in the tents.
Mushara Lodge is a dream, from the warthogs in the garden to the beautiful buildings and incredible staff. Everyone, everywhere we went was so friendly!
And the fur seals at Cape Cross….another favorite of the whole group, as were the dunes in Sossusvlei, of course.
I think we all felt that one night in Swakopmund would have been enough and we would have preferred to stay in the desert an extra night.
Highly recommend Nature Travel for anyone looking for a well-organized great trip!

Perfect in all aspects.
The tour was excellent- I cannot say enough good things about Nature Travel Namibia. NTN planned an excellent customized itinerary for me that took me throughout Namibia as well as to Cape Town, So Africa. I had such a memorable time due to NTN’s excellent service and personalized attention given me all along the way. And in planning, NTN always responded to my questions promptly.I really appreciate all Pepi and her team did and thank them for their patience and making this trip happen so seamlessly and without a glitch. A sightseeing flight in Swakopmund over the desert was a special highlight, as were all the wildlife and birds I got to see throughout. My guide, Falco, was also a big plus as he was exceptionally knowledgeable in all facets of Namibian culture, history and geography, as well as having a keen eye for spotting animals, birds, and native fauna along the way, of which there were many. It would be difficult to say that any point of my itinerary was less special than the other- They all exceeded my expectations.
I highly recommend Nature Travel Namibia for anyone seeking a first class adventure to a lovely country,

Amazing Namibian Christmas Adventure!
Embarking on a travel adventure in Namibia during Christmas 2024 was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, the stunning landscapes, diverse wildlife, and warm hospitality of the Namibian people made our trip unforgettable – Especially that of our guide from Nature Travel Namibia- Lucky G (who quickly became part of our family!)
Our adventure began in Windhoek, the capital city, where we travelled through the city to the wide open roads where we experienced mountain passes and amazing food along the way!
During our stay, we journeyed to the breathtaking Sossusvlei region. The iconic red dunes of Deadvlei were an absolute highlight. Climbing the dunes at sunrise was a surreal experience; the sight of the sun casting golden hues over the landscape was truly magical. We also took the time to explore the nearby Sesriem Canyon, a natural wonder that showcases the incredible geological history of the area, all made even better by the knowledge of Lucky, who never left any stone unturned when it came to explaining the geography and history of all the places we visited.
Our visit to Swakopmund was a true highlight -a true coastal gem! We stayed here for 2 nights and felt so at home. We can’t wait to return one day. Here we enjoyed quad-biking and sand boarding down the sand dunes. A real holiday highlight.
Towards the end of our itinerary was the wildlife-rich Etosha National Park. We embarked on exhilarating game drives, spotting cheetahs, lions, and even a rare sighting of the endangered black and white rhino. We spent hours mesmerised by the interactions of various species and our guide Lucky explained in detail about every single animal we spotted. A night spent at two of the park’s lodges was equally enchanting, as we enjoyed a starlit dinner under the expansive African sky.
One of the most interesting experiences was visiting the 5000-year-old rock engravings. The warmth and hospitality we encountered were overwhelming from other various guides we met. Engaging with the communities and learning about their traditions and way of life was a highlight of our trip. We left with a deeper understanding of their culture and a newfound appreciation for their resilience and connection to the land.
Spending Christmas in Namibia was unlike any holiday experience we had before. We celebrated at our lodge in Twyfelfontein, where the staff organised a special dinner featuring a fusion of traditional Namibian dishes and festive favourites. The evening was filled with laughter as we made new memories to last a lifetime. It was a beautiful reminder that the essence of the holidays lies in togetherness, regardless of where you are in the world.
Our Christmas adventure in Namibia was a perfect blend of exploration, relaxation, and cultural immersion. The country’s stunning landscapes, diverse wildlife, and rich cultural heritage makes it a top destination for any traveller! Whether you're seeking adventure or a serene escape, Namibia offers something for everyone. I wholeheartedly recommend experiencing this beautiful country with the support of Nature Travel Namibia—it truly was a journey of a lifetime. The lodges Nature Travel Namibia planned for us to stay in were nothing short of amazing. Each with their own unique vibe and experience.
I would like to extend our thanks to Amber and Lucky from Nature Travel Namibia. Our trip was truly made even more special by having Lucky as our guide. We will be forever grateful for this experience. We are already planning our next African adventure!
Thank you,
The Maher Family

Incredible
The tour was beyond our expectations. The value for what we received was amazing. We stayed at beautiful lodges with incredible hospitality, enjoyed delicious food (and they were very accommodating toward the dietary restrictions in our group), and learned so much from our knowledgeable guide. The planning phase was extremely detailed and hands on, and our guide also allowed us to make adjustments to our trip as we saw fit while we were on it. We appreciated the flexibility and customization. We saw so much on our safari game drives, from wildlife to beautiful flora and scenery. Our guide was great at spotting animals and teaching us about animal habits and their habitat. Our trip to the desert was equally as exciting and we got to enjoy hiking in the beautiful dunes of Namibia. I know that if we had tried to attempt any of this trip on our own our experience would not have been nearly as nice. The coordination from our planner and our guide truly made this trip so incredible. I also believe had we tried to do this experience on our own, we probably would have ended up spending more. Will definitely be exploring with this company for future trips.

Amazing
We are a family of four, with two daughters (13 and 10 years old). Our package was a 14-day Namibia - Chobe - Vic Falls tour with a guide, staying in mid-range lodgings.
Our expectations for this trip were high, and it is safe to say that they were well exceeded. Everything was amazing, well planned, with truly astonishing places and experiences.
But the best part of all was our guide, Stewart. He is really awesome, so knowledgeable, and great for conversations. Without him, the trip would have still been fine, but because of him, it was extremely great.

Your successful trip starts with Nature Travel Namibia.
Easy to get in touch with, always quick to reply and give to-the-point answers, good suggestions or find solutions.
Having my tailor-made trip set up, with 7 parrots as specific targets was easy-peasy for me. Every step of the way was transparent, no hidden agendas, no extra costs, ... everything was clear as can be.
The trip had 2 segments : northern Namibia and northeast South-Africa and for each part I traveled with local birding guides, very nice people that know their country as the back of their hand. And on top, they are great fun to travel with.
Accomodation was above expectation (even felt a bit out of tune here and there), comfortable car, ... what else could anyone want , besides another trip ?!
Nick and your team, well done ! Until we meet again for a Rock Shandy or an Amarula. And more parrots of course.

Magical from start to end
We heard about Nature Travel Namibia from friends who were very positive about their experience with them, and we are very happy we followed their advice. The whole trip, from the itinerary to the lodges and tented camped to the activities, were absolutely amazing. Petra really hit the spot with choosing the most magical places to stay! Also, the organizatoon was flawless, and when our plane was delayed with 8hrs, Petra immediately supported with making the necessary arrangements, giving us full piece of mind! We definitely recommend Nature Travel, it was truly a once in a lifetime experience.

Highly recommend Nature Travel
This was our first trip to Africa, and we are beyond happy we selected Nature Travel Namibia. For 10 months, we worked with Nicolette who provided prompt answers to a myriad of questions and guided us to great options. We had never met but we feel that she understand implicitly what we were looking for. We were paired with private guide Joram Matenhese who was absolutely tops! We spent a little over two weeks with him in Namibia and learned so much about nature, the complex cultural and political dynamics between people and animals, and the best places to get coffee and snacks along the way. He is also an amazing expert birder (he knows literally every bird from sight and sound) and knows all the best places and times to see wildlife. It also helped that it seemed like everyone we met in Namibia knows and likes him—from lodge staff to national park gatekeepers to restaurant staff. We felt like VIP traveling with him. Also, we love all natural things—from little to large—and it was a pleasure to be with him reveling in insects, reptiles, mammals, geology, and flora. If we had traveled alone on a self-guided tour, we would have missed so much and been too preoccupied to enjoy the experience. Regarding the lodges, every place we stayed was comfortable, safe, clean, friendly, and well situated within nature. Memorable highlights were hiking Big Daddy, seeing the dunes meet the ocean in Sandwich Harbour, the Living Deserts guided tour of reptiles and insects in Swakopmund, seeing wildlife in Etosha during the dry season, birdwatching in the Caprivi, and taking a helicopter tour of Victoria Falls. We are going to cherish the experience for the rest of our lives, and we are so fortunate to work with this company and be in the great hands of Nicolette and Joram!

Once in a lifetime experience
We cannot recommend Nature Travel Namibia highly enough! Our tour was absolutely fantastic and our guide, Wilson, was so knowledgeable and fun to travel with. He really made our trip extra special. We felt safe at all times and the accommodation was top shelf. From our first communication with Amber Lynn we knew we were in very good hands. She helped us create an itinerary that suited our timeframe and wish list. We were incredibly impressed with the value, quality and integrity of Nature Travel Namibia. We are so glad we had their expert help in creating a once in a lifetime experience.
Safari of a lifetime
Every aspect of this tour was well planned out and organized. Nicolette was immediately responsive when we emailed that we had missed our connecting flight and coordinated our pickup for the following day. Our guide in Namibia, Buzzy Joell, was simply amazing! He was super friendly, extremely knowledgeable and did everything possible to ensure that we had an amazing tour. He was able to modify some activities to meet our interest and the mobility limits faced by some in our group. He might have even created “birders” out of some of us. We all simply loved having a private guide that accompanied us to the different lodges and who did our game drives. It really created a fun atmosphere and it was like traveling with family near the end. The transfers to our camp in Botswana and on to Victoria Falls were well organized and the drivers were extremely helpful. This is an experience that we will be talking about for years to come.
