Amazing - Amazing trip , tour guide Simon made it even better for us. Would highly recommend although we wish we did the 6 day tour instead of the 3 day tour.

Greatest camping experience ever - At first I was skepabout going on a camping trip, it was my first time camping! But Simon made this such a pleasant experience, I’d even consider camping for a whole week! We left from Windhoek and by the time we got to Soussisvlei, we were all friends. Also, Simon is the ultimate braai master and he makes an excellent potjie. I recommend this 100%.
