Camping under the stars is really the best way to experience Namibia. The tours are solo tourist friendly and a great way to meet fellow travellers.

I enjoyed 2 safaris with Chameleon and they were immensely fun! Camping under the stars is really the best way to experience Namibia. Drivers/guides were fun, helpful and accomodating, they did good job cooking our meals and the camp facilities were okay (in Sesriem it was so hot that our group spent most of the afternoon in the pool). I especially liked that the tours are solo tourist friendly and a great way to meet fellow travellers.Show more
