Minette - OverlandingAfrica.com29 Apr 2011: Hi Genna! That sounds great. You have the right idea by spending 2 nights at each camp. As you can only drive at a certain speed within the park, driving from Namutoni to Anderson Gate in 1-day is not realistic especially if you will be game viewing inbetween. I reccomend to game drive in the area between Okaukuejo and Halali for your first 2-days. When camping in Halali, I would suggest to game drive in the areas around Halali. When camping in Namutoni, you can spend your time game viewing to the North and the surrounding areas. When exiting the park from Namutoni, I reccomend to use Von Lindenquist Gate. Happy travels!
Genna George28 Apr 2011: We would like to spend six nights in Etosha, ideally two nights in each camp. Travelling from Windhoek, do you have an idea of the distances in km's and time between camps? I thought it would be easier to do the first two nights in Okoakoejo, then two nights in Halali and then the last two nights in Namutoni. Is it possible to drive through from Namutomi to Anderson Gate in one day? Or is this completely impractical? Any suggestions? Many Thanks!
Minette - OverlandingAfrica.com11 Apr 2011: Hi Jean, I have emailed you some options regarding your trip to Namibia. Cheers!
Jean Poluta09 Apr 2011: I am arranging a trip to Namibia for a group of 9 students. They will be doing a rafting trip on the Orange River over the Easter week-end and will be able to catch an Interliner bus from the Noordoewer Namibian border post on the evening of the 24th (Sunday) April to get to Windhoek on the morning of the 25th and would leave again on the 30th (Saturday) late afternoon for Cape Town. Could you please let us know if you have an excursion available for them that could include Sossusvlei and Etosha pan? The budget is limited, so camping would be the best. If doing both destinations would be too expensive, then a trip to Etosha would be the choice. Please let me know what the possibilities are. Their bus ticket has to be paid for by Monday, so they need to make a decision within the next day.
Dayne - Overlanding Africa.com17 Mar 2010: Hi Sue, during the day the sun will still be very hot with medium to high temperatures and the children will still be able to swim. Early evening and when night falls the temperatures will drop and it will be a bit chilly. Cheers Dayne
sue hunter16 Mar 2010: Hi please can you answer a question for me- We are thinking of a trip to Namibia in august either camping or lodging. Many of the sites have pools but will the water be warm enough for the children to swim considering the cold nights?many thanks
