Thanks Boet. An awesome video for us tourists. They should employ/sponsor you for giving the details which you can't get on the"phone" lol. Safe travels... PS you missing the cold in Cape Town.
lol, that's why i said dont bother calling😂 quite embarrassing actually. Got back in CT this week, but yes it was nice to have a week of proper sunshine.
Hey Nick .. really enjoying your channel heaps .. 👍👍👌🏻👏👏.. I have only visited Namibia once in 2016 .. what a beautiful country. Nice pristine clean country.. beautiful stunning landscape . Safe .. very pleasant and nice to not see los of people when you travel around . Keep these episodes coming . Fantastic channel .. wishing you all the best ! Stay well !
Fantastic presentation and information, much appreciated. I have four nights at Etosha in October. A special thanks from Ireland 🇮🇪 Do the Etosha campsites have laundry facilities?
@@NickfrNamibia I really appreciate the swift reply. Many thanks for the update. Your videos are invaluable for those of us travelling from Europe and in my case, Ireland 🇮🇪
It will do well. Dunes, deflate tyres and you are ready to go and have fun . Skeleton coast the roads are actually very good so you wont have any issues. Up to where are you going? Only issue I had was the range, about 350-400km. Not an issue as there are a lot of fuel stations, but you have to fill up in every second town.
A great video. Your tip about booking directly with NWR managed to just about get me last rooms for 4 nights in the park after getting no response via emai! Would definitely have missed out otherwise. And the waterholes...listed for trip in June 2022.
Ahhh those zebras are playing with you, lovely to be back in Namutoni, what happened there??? You bring back the many happy memories again, have been sitting for hours and hours near the waterhole in Okaukuejo. Man, all the magic there!!
I missed your question about Namutoni. the fort went uncleaned for a very long time and some tourists took pictures and it landed up in our local newspapers.
@@africalisa on this occasion it was the NWR staff that was at fault, there must have been some function previously and no one bothered to clean up afterwards...
@@NickfrNamibia came back 4 weeks ago. Unforgettable, and will one day go back with much more time... Unfortunately, just discovered your channel afterward. You do a fantastic job! If you ever go to Brazil, be our guest @FazendaBarrancoAlto ruclips.net/user/FazendaBarrancoAlto
Great video Nick! Very, very useful! We are planning to visit Namibia next year, we will drive from South Africa. Our understanding is that we need to have some cash in Namibia as sometimes there is no electricity and in some places (Spitzkoppe, Twyvelfontein, etc) only cash is accepted. We tried to buy Namibian Dollars in Europe, but this is not possible. Can you pay with Rands in Namibia? Or should we try to buy Namibian dollars in South Africa? Thanks a lot. Fernando
Yes you are right always keep some cash in hand. SA rand is a legal tender in Namibia and accepted everywhere just like the namibian dollar. Exchange rate is 1:1
Great video thanks, This may be a silly question but at 1.38 looks like the cars driving past the stop sign at the checkpoint? Do you need to stop at all checkpoints or only if police are there?
oh yes, the police sometimes sit at the side of the road and just wave the cars through. or if they are not there, stop and go. As locals we are pretty familiar with the process.
Awesome to see you drive a Jimny, how was the fuel consumption of the Jimny? We planning a trip from Joburg to Namibia, and worried about how much fuel to carry with us
Thank you for the useful info! We are looking to alternatives to rent a car (if possible at all). Have you ever tried to move by train? I have seen that there is one running to and from the main "cities" in Namibia. When you sleep in campings do you need your own tent or can you rent one at the camping places? I was also wondering whether we will meet other people a part from the ones working with us, tourists :D?
The train is possible, but I dont have any info on that. I travel with my truck. Depends from place to place, you'll have to contact each place, but yes it is possible at some places. Yes, you will meet a lot of people👍🙂
Hey, was lekkr ja🙂 Rented the Jimny from Namibia2Go in Windhoek, great company to rent from, all the info available on their website. Just note it is not equipped for camping, asked them to add a small fridge me. My thoughts: Space and the fuel tank was a bit small vs consumption so you'll have to stop in every second town. But I did enjoy driving around in a brand new vehicle vs my 21 year old Hilux.
@@NickfrNamibia thanks for the update. I'll check out the website. Well nothing beats a hilux , space and comfort is key . How did the fuel consumption differ . As an ex owner of a few 3rz's I know they thirsty
@@R_ovrlnd haha yes they are. Had the Jimny for 10 days, onboard computer told me the consumption over that period was 9.6km/l. I get between 7-7.5 with the Hilux. Big diff is the Hilux has 150lt capacity😂
Hi, love your videos:) I see you booked the car from Namibia2go.. how was your experience with them? Do you recommend the Suzuki Jimmy for a 10 day trip? We are planning a trip and considering renting from them.
I do, just remember it doesn't come with all the camping accessories. Namibia2Go is one of the best in the country, I highly recommend them and I dont get paid to say so🙂
@@NickfrNamibia thanks so much :).. if I may ask another question. I saw your video about baobab tree fruit, hilarious btw... Where can I see a baobab tree in Namibia? .. i always wanted to see one. I went to Kenya a few years back but didn't come across one.. is there a tree we can see near windhoek, etosha, sossusvlei, swakopmund or spitzkoppe... Those are the placed we plan on traveling
I am planning to visit Namibia in 2023 , thank you for this video they are informative. I see on this video your are not driving 4x4 so it's possible to hire that kind of car you are using on this video or does it depends on area you are visiting 🤔
As always a video loaded with lots of information. Great advert for Namibia nd Etosha in particular.. Love it.. Is it just my eyes or are the sands white like Northern Botswana??
Great video! I am planing to drive with my wife from Windhouk to Etosha and than all the way to zimbabwe victoria falls. We will do a 10 day travel in july. Our agency booked us lodges, we will stay each night in a different lodge on the way to zimbabwe. Can you give us advise? Can I pay with credit card and how much cash should I bring with me? This is our first travel to africa, we are so excidet, but we strugeling with the planing. Tvx
@@NickfrNamibia we booked the lodges and everything. But I am just wondering how much cash should I bring and can you pay for the Park visits with a Credit Card
thank you for another informative and very useful video ) and tip on car rent agency :) I GOT A QUESTION! if i camp inside Okaukauejo camp, in a tent lets say. I still can go to see the waterhole? Or i need to book a room from where I can see the animals?
If you end up renting in Namibia ill definitely recommend Namibia2Go, they are excellent. Yes you can, waterhole is only 2 mins walk away from the campsite
@NickfrNamibia thanks a lot. We arriving in Windhoek in the afternoon. Would you recommend driving up halfway to a town (any recommendations), or to stay over in Windhoek for the drive to Namutoni early the next morning?
@@Riaan3108 Stay the night. Go for a dinner, have a good nights sleep. If you are renting or have a camping vehicle I will recommend Urban camp in Whk. Get up early and drive to Namutoni. Longish drive, but tar road all the way.
Thank you for great video. Can you recommend me a good freelance or private tour operator in Namibia. I am a solo traveler and planning to visit Namibia end of this year for about 10 days. Cheers.
You are allowed to take in, but not take out again. So what you take in needs to be consumed inside. Yes I cooked inside the park. The restaurant is over priced for what you receive
@@NickfrNamibia I also want to know how is the cash situation in Namibia? Should we prepare some NAD cash? Or we can pay everything with credit cards. Thanks a lot :)
@@migowii8 always carry some cash for emergencies and more remote areas, about enough for a full tank o fuel and 3 nights of accommodation, but most of the places accept credit cards including reception at national parks. I also take one or two us$100 bills for emergency emergencies
Yes you can there is a tar road all the way from Windhoek to Okaukuejo camp. Problem is the roads inside the park is very bad so you will not enjoy driving around there in a small car. The car in this video is actually a very capable 4x4
glad nie waar nie. As jy kamp of in n bush chalet oornag kan jy vuur maak en braai. Dit is hoekom ek in n bush chalet bly, om te kan braai, het twee keer🙂 as jy in n dubbel kamer of waterhole chalet (Okaukuejo) woon is daar nie self catering nie
there are a few dedicated spots in the park where you can leave your vehicle. You will find them in the official map you can buy from the shop. I speak about it in the video
Great video, thanks for sharing! I’ve heard your best chance of seeing Rhinos is at the watering hole at night. Have you found this to be the case too?

Few things I missed:
1. Gates: there are four gates. Galton in the West that takes you to Dolomite camp, Anderson in the south that leads to Okaukuejo camp, Von Lindequist in the East that goes to Namutoni camp and King Nehale in the North East that leads to either Onkoshi or Namutoni camp.
2. Cash and credit cards are accepted for all payments at the park. This includes Park fees, accommodation, restaurant, shop and fuel. BUT at times these machines are offline or electricity is off, so it is always a good idea to carry a bit of cash.
3. Wifi is available for free only at Dolomite camp. At the other camps the costs are as follows: 300Mb (N$50), 700mb (N$100) & 2Gb (N$200). Only available around the pool and in the restaurant.

Hello nick I do not have a 4x4 and cannot rent one ,can I explore the country with a normal car?
Most of the country yes. If its a rental take an extra spare wheel and a pump for the long distances on the gravel roads
Seems to be very large park. I believe its larger than Kruger national park if my Google search is correct!
correct, but the Pan takes up a large area and I think less is accessible
