Best place to start Namibia travels
The first station of our trip in Namibia did exceed our expectations. The views from our "tent" as well as the "restaurant" were amazing. Breakfast and dinner were delicious. We would come again.

Amazing views and guaranteed rhinos
We had a wonderful time at Waterberg Wildness. We stayed in the Valley Lodge. Note that there are several different lodges all a few km apart. We enjoyed a self-hike and also did the game drive offered. It is guaranteed to see rhinos as they live within the farm/reserve itself. We also saw giraffes in the park. The plateau itself has excellent views. The evening buffet was good, although not extensive (beef and chicken and veg) because there were only 4 tables. All the staff were very helpful. The last 24km of the drive are in a gravel road which was a bit rough in places and a 4x4 is recommended to get to the lodges themselves, which is then straightforward. We did have a problem with our shower, but it was fixed within 30mins. Overall, we were delighted we chose to stay here when we were originally not sure whether to visit waterberg.

Tolle Lage. Der Waterberg ist eine schöne landschaftliche Abwechslung. Die Option auch mal ohne Guide herumwandern zu dürfen hat uns gut gefallen.

Wunderschöne Lodge, tatsächlich mitten in der Wildnis gelegen. Alleine die Anfahrt auf der Schotterpiste und dann in das Tal ist ein Erlebnis. Die Zeltunterkünfte sind geräumig und lassen keine Wünsche offen. Man hat einen wunderschönen Blick auf das Waterberg Plateau. Die Moskitonetze sollte man aber auf jeden Fall benutzen. Sonst wird es eine unruhige Nacht. Das Abendessen im Restaurant war ein echtes Erlebnis. Koch und Kellner haben es mit Gesangseinlagen untermalt. Klar ist das touristisch, aber es war schon etwas Besonderes. Wir hatten den Rhino-Drive gebucht. Hier kommt man ganz nahe an die Nashörner heran. Diese werden von Rangern "beobachtet", so dass eine Nashornsichtung garantiert ist. Wir haben das Fahrzeug verlassen und sind zu Fuß zu drei Nashörnern gegangen, die unter einem Baum Siesta gemacht haben. Wir konnten uns den Nashörnern auf ca. 5 Meter nähern. Später haben wir dann noch ein weiteres Nashorn gesehen. Hier durften wir auf Anweisung des Rangers das Fahrzeug aber nicht verlassen.

Ein besonderer Ort
Wir haben statt des Zeltes ein geräumiges Familienzimmer bekommen. Uns gefiel der ökologische Aspekt der Unterkunft. Haben den Rhino Drive und den Plateau Hike gemacht. Beides super. Essen auch sehr gut.
