5.00It was an amazing tour. First of all it was very easy to find the driver at Windhoek Truckport and he drove us directly to the Namib Desert Lodge. In the evening we did the Namib Desert Safari and saw many Oryxes, Gnus and Antillopes and could take amazing pictures with the Sunset. On the Second day we started early at 6 to go to the Big Daddy Dune and Dead Vlei. We had 2 hours and it took us 1.5 hours to climb up Big Daddy. Afterwards our guide took us to a picnic and gave us a lot of amazing food for lunch. And afterwards we visited the Sesriem Canyon. All in all the tour was totally worth it and the staff at the Namib Desert Lodge are very nice and helpful and I enjoyed our stay there
A wonderful and enriching experience

Viva is an outstanding tour guide. He took care of every detail in a dilligent manner. Viva is knowledgeable and safety conscious. Not a single flaw could be identified. Very friendly guy who always walked the extra mile to make us experience the most wonderful tour. I highly recommend this tour.
