The falls offer a wonderful photo opportunity, with small rainbows appearing in the mist. The Victoria Falls are fed by the Zambezi River, which forms a natural border between Zimbabwe and Zambia. These waterfalls are one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World and are listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

very professional

We organized the trip with Mr. Clive, who immediately proved very attentive to our needs and created the tour based on our preferences, giving us excellent advice. There were four of us, and everything went very well. The accommodations and vehicle were perfect. So, I'd say it was an excellent experience.

We had a great time. The guide was knowledgeable, helpful and generous with his information.

We had a great time on safari with the private guide arranged by Firefinch. Firefinch was professional, made everything easy and was flexible when I messed up my flights. We enjoyed the experience so much. It was important for us to use a local operator that booked with local guides and vendors in Namibia. We also appreciated that in a less busy season, we were able to see so many animals and have an authentic time in Namibia.

Outstanding Namibia Self-Drive with Brilliant Guide Support from Firefinch!

We booked an 11-day/10-night self-drive camping trip across Namibia with Firefinch Safaris & Car Hire and it exceeded every expectation. From the moment we landed, everything was seamless: we were collected at the airport and taken to Bluu Car Hire where the team handed over our fully equipped Toyota Hilux 4x4 – rooftop tents, fridge, complete camping kit – all spotless and perfectly prepared. When the fridge stopped working at Spitzkoppe, the team drove out the same day to fix it on the spot. That level of service is unheard of – absolutely amazing! At Urban Camp we were met by the wonderful Gesa, who gave us a thorough briefing, fantastic driving tips, hidden-gem recommendations and made us feel completely looked after from day one. She stayed in touch every single day via WhatsApp – quick replies, extra suggestions, and genuine care that made the whole trip stress-free. Thank you, Gesa – you’re a total star! The itinerary was flawless: Urban Camp (Windhoek) → Otjiwa Eagle’s Rest → Onguma Tamboti (loved the pool after Etosha game drives!) → Okaukuejo → Spitzkoppe (magical – a grown-up playground among the boulders, wish we’d stayed longer) → Alte Brücke Swakopmund → Sossus Oasis (perfect base for early dune climbs) → Bagatelle Kalahari Game Ranch (red dunes, cheetah sightings, horses wandering through camp and the best dinner of the trip!). Every campsite was excellent, bookings were perfect, and the route flowed beautifully. Firefinch’s flexibility, top-quality vehicle, brilliant accommodation choices and – above all – Clive and Gesa’s outstanding guidance and constant care made this the smoothest, most enjoyable self-drive we’ve ever done. Huge value for money and genuinely personal service. We can’t thank Clive, Gesa and the whole Firefinch team enough. If you want a stress-free Namibia adventure with expert backup whenever you need it, book with them. You’ll love every second!

Firefinch Safaris organized our dream holiday!

We contacted Firefinch Safaris only a few weeks before we intended to travel to Namibia. In only a short amount of times they organized a fantastic trip for us. We had contact with Michelle and she was suberb! She answered quickly, new the best places to stay and tailored the trip after our wishes. She met us when we arrived and gave us all the information we needed to know. Michelle was also available during the whole trip and booked us additional activities and answered any questions we might have had. Getting help from Firefinch Safaris was great value for money!
