### Our Habitas Namibia

10/10 Excellent

"Habitas Namibia is a wonderful camp surrounded by expansive and awe inspiring views of the Kalahari. The staff are all very welcoming and helpful. The daily changing food menu is good quality and prepared to a high standard. Wonderful morning and evening game drives were a great time whilst learning about the land and animal behaviours. We had a series of sightings of lions, rhinos, elephants, giraffes, and more. The wood framed tents are spacious and well equipped, with comfy beds, aircon and hot water. It’s all well designed, simple and in harmony with the surroundings. Having been to many safari camps across the continent, this one comes across as very well managed. A place to come and enjoy peace in nature. "

10/10 Excellent

"We were there in February (Namibian summer) so it was hot in the tent during the day, and the huge water-filled cooling thingy (don't know what it's called) didn't help at all, if anything it made the tent hotter not to mention the noise it made. We decided to just open the windows and through in the warm breeze. It was better once the sun had gone down. Otherwise it was a great stay. Staff were nice and friendly and we enjoyed the sundowner game drive."
