We went in Feb during rainy season, and boy was it! But that didn't hamper one of the best holidays we've had. Tented camp is superb in every aspect: accommodations, food, hospitality, and, most important, the safaris. Unbelievably knowledgeable staff and guides - flora, fauna, history, culture - whatever your interests, the Ongava team will make it happen. Couple of... More

I spent two weeks on tour and the time at the tented camp was the highlight. Accommodations are very nice, huge tent with in-door/outdoor shower, toilet, sinks and bed, but still a tent. I think I stayed in tent 4 – great view of the watering hole and immediately next to the “lodge” for meals, but still private for outdoor... More

We have stayed at Ongava Tented Camp two nights on our honeymoon. The camp is located right outside of the Anderson Gate of Etosha National Park. The Ongava has a huge private game reserve where it is possible to enjoy beautiful game drives with the guides of Ongava. The tent was very amazing, with a gorgeous shower open air. Excellent...

This tented camp is lovely - fab rooms overlooking waterhole, with 10 rooms around lodge house and each room has deck. This is in a private game reserve at the gates of Etosha National Park - so in the park in the day and around the reserve in the evening. Saw white rhino and baby and the famous pride of... More

Etosha was the third stop on our tour around Namibia. We'd been to Windhoek, seen leopards, cheetahs and hyena at Africat (Okonjima), and now it was on to Etosha to see some real game. We arrived at midday and it was rather hot so being welcomed with a mixture of ginger ale and lemonade was lovely, as was the welcome... More

This was my favorite accommodation in the private Ongava private concession which borders the southern lines of Etosha National Park. Managed by Wilderness Safaris - this is my idea of safari...under canvas, in comfort and in a hot bed of wildlife activity! Wilderness Safaris knows how to deliver. The tents are newly redesigned and provide spacious, luxurrious havens for guests.... More

Having stayed at Wilderness Properties before, we were looking forward to staying at Ongava Tented camp for 4 nights. Arrival - we had flown in on a charter from WDH. On arrival, there was no one waiting to collect us. The pilot called several different people, and we were collected after 40 minutes. No apology at check in at all.... More

This is a wonderful place to stay to see Etosha and the Ongava Game Reserve because you stay right amongst the animals. Saw our first lion within a couple of minutes arriving. The tents are comfortable but you do need to prepare for the cold winter/dry season weather with overnight temperatures below zero - our toothpaste froze. Our guide, Leon,... More

We had a fantastic time at Ongava tented camp - our first real safari experience. We arrived and were generously welcomed, both to the rules of the camp and our fantastic 'tent'. We had no idea at tent could be so luxurious - polished wooden floorboards, beautiful furniture, comfortable beds with egyptian cotton sheets... All overlooking the waterhole, which in... More
