Most Inspirational Moment
There wasn't just one inspirational moment but the following few are some highlights. Seeing the lion walking down the road on a night game trip and the magical waterhole at Okaukuejo where the animals came to drink of an evening. We were incredibly lucky to see the leopard on another game drive out in the open on our last game drive and it made the trip end on a high note. The climb to the plateau at Waterberg was enjoyable but can be hard work for some. The dunes just made you appreciate the scale and grandeur of Namibia and the interesting geology of the country.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Roger was brilliant with the group telling us so much about his country which he was evidently proud of. He told us so much about the landscape, geology, animals, culture and politics of his country. He was also very humorous, interesting to listen and talk to, enthusiastic and looked after us incredibly well. He and the rest of his team (Thomas, Ronnie, Freddie) worked very hard, the cooking was really good and organisation of the tour superb. The next group will be lucky to get the same team.
Advice for Potential Travellers
It did get really cold in June so though it says take a season 3 or 4 sleeping bag in July and August if you go in June take the same. Also thermals, hat and gloves as particularly Etosha was very cold during the night, early morning.It does also get very dusty and sandy so advise to take most of your clothes suitable for safaris such as cut off trousers, shorts and shirts rather than anything dressy.
Suggestions
Just go if you've always wanted to visit and perhaps combine with a trip to Botswana or South Africa while you are at it.
