How it worked: a driver picked me up in Windhoek and drove me to Swakopmund to meet the full tour that was already in progress. Shaka, the driver, was awesome - chatty and energetic, a pleasure to spend a few hours with. I wasn’t wild about being told along the way to Swakopmund that we could buy an additional tour of Sandwich Harbour - I was happy to partake, but would have liked to know this was an option before leaving so I could budget appropriately, and make a more informed decision about which tour company to use. The gentleman who took me around the dunes was dull, and more importantly, very racist. Once the Chameleon tour began in earnest, I was absolutely blown away. Chilo is an incredible guide, he is so passionate about the landscape and Namibian history. He has such a vibrant personality, is an excellent communicator, and genuinely cared that everyone had a good time! The desert and dunes were remarkable, truly breathtaking sights to behold.
I had an unforgettable time in Namibia. The well-organised itinerary and breathtaking natural landscapes left us in constant awe of nature's wonders. We extend our gratitude to your company for providing professional and thoughtful travel support. It must be said that our driver and guide, Greg, was exceptionally attentive and patient. We look forward to meeting him again! 100 points!！
Hearty Greetings from Chameleon Safaris, Thank you so much for this fantastic review! We're absolutely delighted that your 4-day Swakopmund and Sossusvlei adventure left you with such unforgettable memories. Namibia's natural landscapes truly are breathtaking, and we're thrilled that our itinerary allowed you to experience the constant awe and wonder that this beautiful country inspires. It's exactly what we hope for when we design these journeys - creating space for travelers to connect deeply with nature's magnificence. Greg will be over the moon to read your wonderful words! His attentiveness and patience are qualities we deeply value, and hearing that he made such a positive impact on your experience is incredibly rewarding. We'll certainly pass along your kind message and your wish to meet him again - he'll be touched by that! 100 points - we couldn't ask for higher praise! Thank you for recognizing our efforts to provide professional and thoughtful travel support. Your gratitude means so much to our entire team. We would love to welcome you back to Namibia for another adventure, and who knows, perhaps Greg will be your guide once again! Warmest regards, Gavin
I was so impressed with the entire Chameleon experience. The communication beforehand, personal care and attention during, accommodations, guiding and information throughout, overall flexibility, and responsible tourism practices were outstanding. Our guide, Gideon, was fantastic, giving us insightful information, being clear on expectations and agendas, and providing an authentic and realistic view of the wonderful country of Namibia. (Special shout out for changing FOUR tyres throughout the journey - two on the side of the road - without stress.) Many tour operators around the world do not consider the impact of tourism on the communities and environment, and I feel that Chameleon does and has gone out of their way to put systems in place which work toward sustainable tourism practices. Thank you!!!
Dear Stetson, What a wonderful review - thank you so much for sharing your experience with us! We're absolutely delighted that every aspect of your 4-day adventure exceeded your expectations. Gideon will be thrilled to read your kind words! His ability to provide insightful information while keeping things authentic and stress-free (even when dealing with four tire changes!) is exactly the kind of professionalism and calm expertise we value so highly. We're glad he made what could have been frustrating moments into just another part of the adventure. Your recognition of our commitment to responsible and sustainable tourism practices truly means the world to us. This is something we care deeply about, and it's heartening to know that our efforts to minimize impact on communities and the environment while maximizing authentic experiences resonates with travelers like you. Namibia is an extraordinary country, and we believe it's our responsibility to help preserve it for future generations while sharing its wonders today. Thank you for choosing Chameleon, and for taking the time to acknowledge everything from our pre-trip communication to the flexibility we try to offer throughout. We hope Namibia has left a lasting impression on you, and we'd love to welcome you back for another adventure someday! Warmest regards, Gavin
I booked the 4 day tour Thurs to Sun. Before making the booking, I made sure that it was not going to be a problem returning to the airport to catch my flight out of Windhoek at 2:30 pm. When I checked into the office that morning. They told me there was an issue with getting me back in time for my flight so I would have to pay for a private transfer at 6 am Sunday morning and the cost was 5500 NAD. I was shocked that they made the error and expected me to cover that cost while pulling me out early and losing the last day's activity. but the manager told me they will cover that cost and just enjoy the tour. So day 1 begins. The driver said it was just a transfer to Swakopmund. He said that when I arrive I can join a tour to see Walvis Bay and sand board down the dunes. After I agreed to joining the tour for the next day, then he told me that i didn't need to go to Walvis Bay that day because i will see it tomorrow. He never told me I was supposed to see it with him along with a few other stops. I felt he was deceitful in selling that tour so he didn't have to do it. Then I get a message asking me if I would prefer to leave Sat afternoon at 1 pm instead of Sunday morning at 6 am. There was another person in the group leaving at that time, so I agreed to save them from having another driver for myself. They said they will put me in a hotel for Sat night. So I agreed. Day 2 started with the added tour that I paid for. Then my actual tour guide drove us to Solitaire and the camp in Sossusvlei. We went to see the canyon that evening before dinner. Day 3 was an early start to see Deadvlei. We didn't get a chance to climb Big Daddy because we were short on time to make the return trip to windhoek. I didn't get a chance to see the cheetahs, so there were a few things missed on my 4 day tour which basically became 1 and half day tour. The transfer was on a regular shuttle van. Did not get the personal driver I thought I was sharing with the other person. Not very impressed!
Dear Richard, Thank you very much for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We truly appreciate comments from all our travellers, as they help us improve our services. I would also like to sincerely apologise for the shortcomings you experienced during your tour. We fully acknowledge that an error was made regarding the return time to Windhoek in relation to your scheduled flight. Unfortunately, we only became aware of the timing conflict once we received your flight details on the morning of departure. Nevertheless, it was our responsibility to identify and resolve this earlier, and for that I am genuinely sorry. From the moment the issue was identified, we ensured that a private transfer was made available to you at no cost, as previously communicated. This option remained available throughout, and we were happy to cover the expense entirely. You later opted for the shared transfer solution when an alternative departure time became possible, and we appreciate your flexibility in assisting us with logistics for the rest of the group. I would also like to apologise for the guiding concerns you mentioned, specifically the missed visit to Walvis Bay. This is not the standard of service or communication we expect from our team. We have addressed this matter directly, and additional training has already been implemented to ensure this does not happen again. Regarding the amended arrangements for Saturday, the intention was to provide a more comfortable option rather than a very early morning departure. However, I completely understand your disappointment that parts of the itinerary were shortened as a result, and I am sorry that you were unable to experience certain activities you were looking forward to. At Chameleon Safaris, we take full responsibility for the mistakes that occurred during your booking process. At the same time, we kindly ask all travellers joining our scheduled departures to carefully read through the full itinerary included in their booking confirmation. We also strongly encourage guests to share their flight information with us as soon as it becomes available. This allows us to arrange transfers accurately and identify any potential issues well in advance. Once again, I sincerely apologise for the inconvenience you encountered and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Your feedback helps us improve, and we hope we may have the opportunity to offer you a far better experience in the future. Kind regards, Susan Minnaar
This is an amazing adventure. The accommodations, while fairly basic, check off all of the necessary boxes. Their transportation, from the helpful airport pickups and returns, the hotel pickups and the safari van all exceeded my expectations. We booked the optional 4X4 SUV trip over the beaches and dunes of Swokopmund and it was awesome. The travel down to Sossusvlei was a bit bone jarring over the unpaved roads, but the time spent on the great dunes was worth every bump. The facilities at Desert Camp were good and the food choices at the nearby Sossusvlei Lodge were outstanding. I would highly recommend this trip, but would stress with tour leader the need to more clearly communicate details. There were a number of times that he, Gregory, left details out and created lots of confusion.
Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the adventure, from the beach and dune 4x4 experience in Swakopmund to the unforgettable time at Sossusvlei. It’s great to know that the accommodations, transport arrangements, and dining experiences met or exceeded your expectations. We truly appreciate your constructive feedback regarding communication; we will review this with Gregory to ensure all details are clearly shared with future guests. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we’re pleased that, despite some bumps along the road, your Namibian adventure was memorable and enjoyable. We hope to welcome you back for an even smoother and equally incredible experience in the future! Jordan-Rohi..
An unforgettable experience. Tour is very well organized, great food and accommodation. The Sossusvlei experience is not to be missed- make sure you climb Big Daddy dune, you will not regret it as it's truly spectacular. Our guide/driver/cook Simon (Panduleni) is the very best, so knowledgeable, caring for all of us individually, and always in the best of moods. Thank you Simon, and my fellow travelers, for a fantastic time!

Thank you for sharing your experience, and we look forward to welcoming you back to explore more of Namibia’s wonders! Jordan-Rohi..

Chameleon were incredibly accomodating - got an incredibly worthwhile experience with plenty of good food and comfortable stays. Gregg our guide was absolute top class - can consider myself pretty lucky to have gotten a guide like him. Additionally great weather at this time.

At Chameleon Safaris, we always aim to deliver memorable adventures, and it’s great to hear the weather cooperated too! Jordan-Rohi..
Did the 4 days 3 nights Swakopmund & Sossusvlei Adventure Lodge Safari with Chameleon Safari. Everyone from the front office (Emgard) to the driver (Anton) and guide (Simon) were friendly , helpful , responsive and ensuring we are well taken care of . The only suggestion I would have is for the company to include a sandwich harbor afternoon / morning tour instead of free time in Swakopmund. No offense to the dunes in Sossusvlei but visiting Sandwich Harbour (especially during sunset) is the most magical and unforgettable experience!
Thank you for your thoughtful feedback—Emgard, Anton, and Simon are delighted to have made your trip enjoyable with their attentive care. Many travelers find themselves wonderfully conflicted when choosing between the stunning sunsets at Sossusvlei and Sandwich Harbour, and we appreciate your suggestion as we continually seek to offer the best experiences at Chameleon Safaris.
