ETENDEKA MOUNTAIN CAMP, DAMARALAND

ETENDEKA MOUNTAIN CAMP

NATURAL BEAUTY

In the foothills of the Grootberg Massif, Etendeka Mountain Camp offers simple comfort amidst the rugged beauty of northern Damaraland.

Small and rustic, the focus at Etendeka is entirely on immersing yourself in the natural beauty that surrounds you – a world of rocky plains, flat-topped mountains and ancient basalt lava flows. On morning walks and afternoon game drives, you’ll discover that this seemingly inhospitable environment is actually bursting with life. Expert guides will help you to identify animal spoor, rare plant species and the region’s exciting birdlife.

The camp itself has a traditional feel. Guests are accommodated in just a handful of simple tents with eco-friendly, open-air bucket showers. Dining is a communal affair, with fresh, home-cooked meals prepared on open fires and enjoyed under the stars. For keen stargazers, Etendeka has its own telescope that guests are free to use to admire the constellations.

“PROFESSIONAL, PERSONAL – AND A REAL PLEASURE”

From the moment we got in touch, everything felt smooth and well looked after. The team were not only professional and thorough – providing tailored suggestions with clear costings – but also genuinely friendly. Even after we returned, a follow-up email (and a bottle of wine!) showed just how thoughtful Ultimate Travel really is. Nothing was too much trouble. We already have more trips booked and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

“FLAWLESS, AGAIN”

This is the third time I’ve used TUTC. The service, as before, was flawless. Aside from putting in place all the major details of a complex trip to Japan, Dan at TUTC nailed every detail: train tickets were for seats with large luggage space (very important in Japan, as we discovered); a mobile internet wifi was included; together with a pre-charged use-pretty-much-anywhere travel card (again, important – Japan has multiple transport companies). For any kind of complex trip I won’t go anywhere else.

“IN SAFE HANDS, EVEN WHEN PLANS CHANGE”

Every detail of our Patagonia tour was expertly arranged – from transfers and flights to the choice of hotels. When our onward flight to the Falklands was delayed by two days, ��ɫ��TV stepped in immediately and secured a hotel for us. It was an enormous relief, especially as we don’t speak Spanish and had no idea what to do next. That level of thoughtful, responsive service stayed with us – it turned a potential travel hiccup into a lasting positive memory.
