Hi, I've just booked for this trip. It sounds really wonderful but I'm a little worried about how much rain can be expected at this time of year. Can you advise me please? Thanks

Hi Bridget Jane,

Please don't be too worried about the rain. Namibia is an all year destination and you will possibly find some days are humid with some downpours (more likely in the Northern and central regions), but rain is quite uncommon on the coast (even during the wet season). You'll find the coastal temperatures are around 25 degrees and warmer still inland.

Kindest regards,

Julia

Thanks for your reassurance. I'm already excited about the holiday even though it's quite a way off.

Not a problem - I think this looks like a great itinerary, certainly worth getting excited over!

Hi Jaya, I will certainly post a review! Getting excited already although it's a long way off. It looks like an amazing experience!

Yes Bridget, it does look like an amazing experience. I had planned to do South Africa with Zambia add-on, but when I saw that Namibia was on offer I opted for this holiday just in case it is not offered again. I am sure South Africa will not disappear from the brochure for the next 2-3 years as I still plan to do this holiday as well. Days are flying by so quickly and before you realise it, February will be here and you will be on your way!

Hi Jaya, I picked Namibia instead of India for the same reason. India and South Africa seem to be constants in the brochure where as Namibia could be just for the next year. Also, it looks like quite an active trip and I want to do as many of those as possible while I can.

Hi Bridget

My thinking is similar to yours - do the long haul active trips while I have the energy and leave the others for when I am not very mobile!

Great minds think alike Jaya! Maybe we'll bump into one another on another JY holiday one day. It would be lovely to meet you!

Hi Bridget

You never know when our paths will cross. It is always nice to put a face to a name and let us hope that we will get a chance to meet one day. In the meantime we both have a lovely adventure to look forward to.
