Normally we arrange a lot ourselves when we travel. For a change, we actually thought it was very nice that Untamed Traveling had taken on this. We only had to indicate what we thought was important in terms of lodges and distances and the trip was planned.
On arrival in Namibia, the local agent with whom Untamed Traveling cooperates was waiting for us. We were escorted to the car hire office and then taken to a fantastic large car.
The first day we stayed at Villa Violet in Windhoek, which was very nice after a long journey. A very relaxed start to the holiday. Here we were visited by the local agent who explained everything about the trip to us. We were given a map that indicated the best way to drive from lodge to lodge and which was the fast or scenic route. Of course we always drove the scenic route. She told us all the 'must do's' and this way we were well prepared.
The next morning we started the journey and it was amazing! When you drive through Namibia, the landscape changes every 15 minutes. You can drive there for 5 hours without meeting a single car, fantastic! We drove from lodge to lodge and did one or two game drives or other activities at most. Actually, each lodge had its own charm and we are very satisfied with all of them. The staff are friendly and helpful, everything is clean, the food is great and the decor has a nice African style.
Because of the friendliness of the people, the beautiful landscapes and animals and the organization of Untamed Traveling, we had a fantastic trip!
