Explore Africa Travel レビュー 499

Namibian kiertäminen vuokra-autolla kuulosti yltiöpäiseltä idealta mutta Explore Africa Travelin porukka teki siitä mahdollisen ja helpon. Hyvä auto, hyvät majoitukset ja retket - kaikki toimi. Unohtumaton matka!

Matka täytti tai oikeastaan ylitti kaikki odotukset! Se mitä oli matkatoimiston kanssa etukäteen sovittu, piti paikkansa. Koski se sitten majoituksia, ruokailuja, oheisohjelmia tai mitä muuta tahansa.
Palvelu oli ystävällistä. Maana Namibia oli näkemisen ja kokemisen arvoinen!
Kiitos!

Wir waren im April 2024 in Namibia und Botswana auf einer Selbstfahrertour unterwegs. Die Reise haben wir uns von Explore Namibia zusammenstellen und organisieren lassen. Wir hatten vom 1. Kontakt im April 2023 ein super Gefühl, das wir mit Explore Namibia einen kompetenten und zuverlässigen Partner gefunden haben. Silvia war von Anfang an unsere Kontaktperson und hat die Reise nach unseren Wünschen zusammengestellt.
Alles hat hervortragend geklappt. Am Flughafen wurden wir von einem Mitarbeiter begrüßt und abgeholt, in Windhoek haben wir von Silvia persönlich die Reiseunterlagen erhalten und noch Tipps für Unterwegs erhalten. Das Fahrzeug haben Asco Car Hire bekommen und es wurde uns bei der Übergabe bis ins Detail erklärt. Das Fahrzeug (Toyota Hilux) war neu und hatte erst 340 km auf dem Tacho.
Am Ende der Reise wurden wir nach Abgabe des Fahrzeuges wieder zum Flughafen gebracht.
Wir können Explore Namibia ohne wenn und aber weiter empfehlen.

Very usefull app before departure. A great and complete travelbook and maps (Namibia and Ethosa) at arrival. Great and complete car. Everyting was organised as promised. One little issue with the fridge was solved in "no time".

Explore Afrika is een absolute aanrader! Wij zijn net thuis van onze fantastische reis naar Namibië. Alles was tot in de puntjes geregeld zodat wij enkel maar moesten genieten van deze reis! Als we naar Botswana zouden gaan ooit zullen we zeker voor deze organisatie kiezen!

Excellent service. Goes above and beyond. Would recommend this service to family and friends. Thanks for making it a breeze!

We did a 25 day self-drive safari with Explore Namibia.They are the most professional travel service I have come across in Southern Africa. The trip was well organised. They were great at emailing before the trip, helping us tweak the itinerary to suit our needs. They provide vouchers for each night’s accommodation and also give you a fantastic guide package when we picked up out 4x4. The vehicle was superb, and all the camping equipment was of high quality. The booklet they provide gives you your daily route, with detailed directions and some interesting facts about the places you visit. There were also some general tips and advice on driving on the roads in Namibia and border crossings. I can not recommend them enough. The best company I have every used in Namibia after nine visits.

Explore Namibia biedt een uitstekende service aan de avontuurlijke reiziger. De communicatie verloopt vlot en transparant. Een absolute aanrader!

For a few years we were planning a family safari with our young daughter, finally decided on Namibia as it is a safe friendly country and easy for a self drive safari. Was recommended explore Namibia by a work colleague and were not disappointed. We planned a 24 day self drive seeing nearly the whole country in September 2023, with in a few weeks the whole route was planned including all the reservations. Could you organize it your self cheaper...probably, if you have loads of free time and the local knowledge of the travel distances. The campsites and lodges were excellent and would recommend them . Even though are incoming flight was delayed by 5 hours the car hire firm ASCO was waiting for us at the airport and the Namibia team at the car hire place, explained the route and gave all the information including a map (navigation is not hard in Namibia, every road is well indicated), and a personalised travel plan in both book and online format. Luckily are trip was problem free apart from a fridge breakdown (no cold beer) which was resolved within 24 hours by the car hire firm.
Namibia is a must see country and would definitely recommend Explore Namibia as a partner. If your worried about traveling with children don´t be, at no time did we feel unsafe. Only tip is it does get very cold at night at this time of year, we bought some extra blankets and a warm pyjama for my daughter, bring a warm coat for fleece for the early mornings.

What a great experience travelling through Namibia with the help of Explore Namibia! Fantastic planning, welcoming, and support whenever needed! Totally recommend it!

This was the second time we booked our trip via Explore Africa Travel. We have been very satisfied with the planning and all suggestions received. First time it was only two of us visiting Namibia - this time we invited our entire family (8 adults and 4 children). We can highly recommend Explore Africa Travel. Special thanks to Julia and Johannes

Namibia ist ein wunderbares, facettenreiches Reiseland und ist auch für alleinreisende Frauen perfekt geeignet. Die Menschen sind stets freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Natur ist überwältigend und die Tierwelt einmalig - von den Big Fives im Busch bis zu den Little Fives in den Wüstendünen. Die Schotter-und Sandstrassen sind ein Abenteuer für sich.

Explore Africa was really attentive to our needs. Both in the initial planning of our trip as well as when we were forced to modify our plans. Very helpful!
And they booked us into great lodges. Super experience!

Thank you Explore Namibia. You made our dream come true. Everything worked perfectly and you gave us the best tips on Namibia. Your service was answering our questions asap. That helped us a lot when we broke our car tire in Swakopmund. Your stuff were extreme polite and added wit a lot of experience. Thank you. Our family will come again for sure!

The trip was made extra special by a reliable company supplying a reliable vehicle.

Explore Namibia offered a great help & flexibility in the organization of our Namibia trip of February 2024.

Dank Explore Namibia hatten wir einen perfekt organisierten und angenehmen Aufenthalt in Namibia. Die Mitarbeiter waren zu jeder Zeit sehr kompetent und freundlich. Jeder Reisetag wurde mit uns besprochen und sowohl in digitaler als auch in Papierform an uns gesendet. Wir hatten Zugang zu einer App in der auch extra Tipps für jede Destination enthalten waren. Auch während unseres Aufenthaltes waren die Mitarbeiter immer erreichbar für unsere Fragen. Explore Namibia wird auch zukünftig unsere Reisen in den Süden Afrikas mit uns planen und organisieren, da ich nicht auf diesen Ansprechpartner verzichten möchte.
LG Carmen und Christian!

The itinerary and bookings were outstanding. They really listened to what we wanted and adjusted perfectly. We saw so much spectacular country. Stayed in great campsites and saw so many animals, it was truly a trip of a lifetime.

Pros:
They gave us plenty of time to go through all the gear, how to use it, and for us to ask questions. And we are not experienced drivers so this made us feel very safe.
The car was very nice to drive and it is really well equipped.
It is very nice that airport shuttle is included. When we returned the car they drove us to our hostel and still picked us up and drove us to the airport the following day - above and beyond!!!
The roof tent was very easy to use and takes maybe 5 minutes to put up/take down if you do it two people, but you can also do it one person.

Cons:
I gave our arrival details three time but apparently that wasn’t enough because when we arrive in Windhoek there wasn’t a pick-up ready. My mistake because there was one email I hadn’t responded to which is why they hadn’t scheduled the pick-up. But they should probably update their internal processes since they need to receive the same info from me four different times.
The day we returned the car it seemed that they also didn’t know the we were coming. And we were just sorta told to “wait here” in the middle of the garage - which we didn’t do but went to the waiting area (which is quite nice with free water, tea, coffee) so we could sit down comfortably.
Some of the equipment are a bit old and used. The can opener was barely useable.
We only had temperature down to about 10-12 but I Think if it had ben lower we would’ve been cold and needed an extra blanket or thicker duvet.

Extra:
We bought a French press which was one of the best decisions we made - good coffee on a trip like this just made everything better!
When we returned the car we notice they collect and pass on food, we had already given our left over food to some boys at at gass station but this is a much better way to do it!!!

We had a very good contact with Rikie. She always listened to our wishes and created the trip for us exactly how we wanted it.
Everything was well organised.
