I went on the 6 days tour Taste of Namibia with Markus and Job. We were so lucky to have them as our guides. Always smiling, very good guides and always working to make our trip as good as possible. I went on other tours and I can compare. So keep on working like that ‘Wilddogs’ ! Christine

We would like to thank everyone in the Wild Dogs office (especially Frieda) and our guides: Ronnie and Ruben, Gabriel and Joseph and Leescinda (sorry about the spelling) and Kaleb and most especially Peter-Hain for a fantastic 3 1/2 weeks in Namibia, Botswana and Zambia. The three tours that we took gave us a fascinating insight into this region (all that was really missing was the southern desert).

We particularly enjoyed meeting people on our travels. Everyone was so friendly and interesting to spend some time with. The highlight was probably the Bushmen and Batswana tribes; although obviously the game drives and the Delta and Vic Falls were also amazing. The most beautiful spot was the valley at Brandberg – and the most sheer fun was quad-biking at Swakopmund and the “booze cruise” on the Zambezee.

We’d have to recommend Joe’s Beerhouse in Windhoek for the final dinner and Tamboti was our home-from-home between tours.

We hope that the Bushman “experience” is extended. Uakii Wilderness Survival are doing some really important work with them and it is great to see the collaboration between them and Wild Dogs.

I was travelling with youngsters between the ages of 12 and 18, so it was great that all the logistics were taken care of and we could just relax and enjoy the amazing experience. I would recommend Wild Dogs to anyone.

Areas for improvement: I think there is some scope for some modest investment in the vehicles and tents/equipment to improve comfort for those of us whose camping days lie a little behind us. A bit more focus on upgrades and options at the time of booking would also be helpful.

However, this is such an amazing experience and the care extended by all the staff to keep us safe, well-fed and to show and explain to us a little of this amazing region makes this something that everyone should do at least once.

Again, heartfelt thanks to all.

I first visited Namibia in 2005, and went on the 14 day Namibian Experience safari with Wild Dogs. I then did a week voluntary work with Cheetah Conservation Fund. I didn’t want to go home & Africa was in my heart and my soul! I hadrealised a lifelong dream! In 2007 I went on safari in the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, which was amazing, but Namibia was in my blood so I caught the bus from Upington to Windhoek and did the Delta/Vic falls safari with Wild Dogs. The Okavango has to be Heaven & Wild Dogs are the best! I visited Southern Africa in 2008 & 2009, but I think about Namibia every single day and hope to return & take another Wild Dog Safari soon….maybe next year! Thankyou Wild Dog for realising that dream and making me understand what true happiness really is!

hello wild dogs crew ,in 2009 I and two co workers derrick and MR Takishema had a wonderfull safari in Namibia ,excellent service by our tour guides Tuhafeni and job I will be returning in the near future take care guys .

I have recently been on your 7 day northern safari. This is without a doubt the best trip I have ever been on. having never done a tour like this before I was a little aprehensive but our guide Lezinda, and her assistnt Job were fantastic. Unbelievably helpful, always happy to answer our questions, supplying lots of information, and showing us Namibia with passion and real enthusiasm. Nothing was too much trouble, and the meals they produced at the end of long days were really great. Their sense of humour and patience were truly appreciated.

We were just two passengers on the 15 day Delta & Dunes so guiding/driving/vegetarian cooking was taken care of by only one person without having an assistant. This marvelous guide was Milner who should earn “The perfect Guide ever Award”!
Thanks so much for enabling and enriching this tour.
N.B.: I recommend to bring your own mosquito net for Botswana.

We visited Namibia for the first time when we did the 10 day Namibian Explorer 18 Dec 2010-28 Dec 2010. We had many wonderful experiences, saw lots of great sites and animals . We did the trip in reverse of what was advertised but feel this was a better way to do it. Wilddog Safaris was very professional, and well organized.Thanks go out to Frieda in the office for her patience and very prompt responses to our numerous emails, to our driver/guide Tuhafeni and assistant/cook Kaleb for an unforgettable journey. Tuhafeni was very knowledgeable, friendly, attentive (without being overly so), and we felt very comfortable in his capable hands. Kaleb kept us well fed-far better food than what we experienced on our last leg of our trip with another outfit in South Africa, and was always there to assist with our tents or whatever was needed. Tuhafeni and Kaleb make a good team…Our thanks go out to all of Wilddog Safaris for a great experience at a reasonable price. We will recommend your services without reservation.

I have excellent memories about my trips: Etosha, Sossusvlei, Delta and Falls.

Not because of the amazing scenery, what can one say, so beautiful, but because of the excellent tourguides. Dehare (‘Di’), Manfred, Milner: their knowledge, friendliness, care and humanity was extra ordinary. Each time, in their own way, they created a very good atmosphere in the group.

I thank them very much.

I recently joined the 6 Days Taste of Namibia Safari. I had a fantastic time!! Thanks a lot to the guides Elias and Markus, who looked after us very well and never get tired of answering our questions. I can highly recommend Wilddog Safaris!
Cheers Susanna

Many thanks to william for a fantastic Namibian Ideal holiday. We will never forget the elephants in Etosha, or the close encounter with a leopard at Africat!
Our accommodation in the lodges was luxurious and the food was superb.
Namibia is an amazing place.
Thank you Wild Dogs Safaris for a truly wonderful experience.
