Great choice for Namibia
We are REALLY happy we chose People Tour and we highly recommend our guide Tuhafeni. We went on a 5-day tour covering everything I wanted in Namibia - the beautiful landscape of the desert, Deadvlei, the dunes meeting the ocean in Walvis Bay, the seal colony, one beautiful sunset after the other and, of course, amazing food. The hotels were great. We usually stay in modest places, so for us it was a royal treatment for our vacation. Tuhafeni had great knowledge to share about all places, the wildlife, cool photo spots, the culture, everything. Overall a really nice person to be around and really made us feel comfortable throughout the journey. We covered 1500km in 5 days, but the landscape is so beautiful that I never got tired of just observing everything from the window - and also looking for wildlife all the time. It was fun and relaxing and we wish we had more time to cover more and continue the tour for a few more days. Thanks Tuhafeni and People Tour for the amazing experience!

The 5-Day Sossusvlei &...
The 5-Day Sossusvlei & Sandwich Harbour Photography Tour was the ultimate combination of relaxation and adventure! Luke was the best guide I could have asked for! He's thoughtful about your needs and is a fountain of knowledge for every aspect of the tour. His passion for sharing all of the amazing things Namibia has to offer is so contagious, you'll fall in love with all of the breathtaking nature he'll share with you. No matter what situation you're in, Luke will take care of everything. There was higher rainfall than usual which made some of the roads hard to pass, but he made it through smoothly; like a champ! He is mindful of fitness levels and will cheer you on as you trek up the sand dunes for epic views. He'll also make sure you have plenty of space and time to get the best photos.
Your trip will be packed with unique experiences! Froggy made driving on the sand dunes a once in a lifetime adventure as he's such an expert on finding the most exciting dunes. It was such a highlight that I've told so many people about it since the trip!
With all of the driving and different destinations, I was super happy that I booked a tour rather than trying to do it myself; you definitely get your money's worth with the great choices in accommodation and activities! It was also so effortless as the Aina was super communicative and helped me even coordinate transfers from the airport and to other destinations at the best rates since I booked the tour. The team truly provides an all-encompassing service and I would recommend them to anyone looking to have an unforgettable experience in Namibia!

Namibia da lasciarci il cuore!
We just finished an unforgettable trip to Namibia. Wonderful experience thanks to the beauty and charm of the places visited but above all for the perfect organization of People and Safari tour and for the guide who accompanied us on the trip: Fanuel.
Precise, prepared, attentive Fanuel took us to see magical Namibia driving over 2000 km.
The trip was wonderful also thanks to his great professionalism and availability. Fanuel has fulfilled our every wish and need cuddling us throughout the journey.
Even Aina and Alby from the base office followed us and helped us organize the trip ... what about perfect! And Namibia wonderful.... To leave our hearts!

I had a great time thanks to "People Tours And Safaris
ナミブ砂漠のDuneに登って夕日や朝日を見ました。とてもすごい世界で表現する言葉がありません。国立公園の中のロッヂもとても良かったです。
ツアーガイドがとても親切で、おもてなしの心もあり、おかげさまでとても楽しく過ごせました。うまく言葉で言い表せませんが、とにかく家族や友人にここへ行くことをすすめています。私も次回は家族を連れて、また行きたいと思っています。その時はこのツアー会社にまた頼もうと思います。とても親切に対応してくれましたし、ガイドが最高でしたから。
I enjoyed the tour "5-day Sossusvlei & Coast".
"Dune45" with sunset and "BigDuddly" with sunrise were grateful for the stunning views. I enjoyed activities like "Quad Bike" and "Sandwich Harbour". The accommodation in the national park was also brilliant.
My guide is not only a professional guide but also kind, friendly, reliable, and good-hearted. And I like his driving manner. I enjoyed the tour a lot thanks to him.
I had a great time in Namibia.
I would like to come back there with my family, and then I'll certainly ask "People Tours And Safaris" again.

Wonderful tour
This was an absolutely wonderful tour. Leonard was a very friendly, personable guide throughout the tour who went to great lengths to make me feel welcome and make the tour enjoyable. Leonard and Berlinda worked with me on a couple customizations of my tour and scheduling extra activities. Was absolutely outstanding and a great experience.

Namibia for adventure lovers
The tour is well organized, perfectly curated, logistics are impeccable and you couldn’t be in better hands. Saki, the tour guide, was also a very important part of the overall experience, being positive, friendly, and helpful. We even spent New Year’s Eve with him! We came back home with lots of souvenirs, experiences, adventures and a new friendship! You definitely have to book this private 5-day tour and ask for Saki to be your tour guide!

Perfect journy
An unforgetable journey in the desert country of Namibia. The driver who also was the tourleader was absolutely amasing - Sakaria did everything to make you feel good. Greate lodges and hotels made the journy perfect. Einar
