Namibia bound

Packing that duffel takes a minute. Will be posting a review upon our return next month. The photos coming from Kwessi Dunes on the virgin 2024 voyage look wonderful. My friend is posting her impressions on another platform.

    This explains why British likes Namibia so much! This sounds like something that a swimsuit model would do. 😂😂

    I posted elsewhere on the forum. I try to pack clothes that look "okay" but not fashion forward in order to donate clothing before I leave the continent. I have always done this and it provides a nice help to the staff as well as give more space to bring back memorable souvenirs of local sourced products which helps the economy there! I have done this on ALL of my trips to the African continent-not all with Tauck, some were medical missionary trips or with other tour companies. It is a true help to everyone there! I hope this helps with "packing". I will do so again in late September, 2024

    Love that concept, Jill Boyle!

    For those who do decide to donate clothes or shoes before you leave, make sure you let the hotel/lodge know you are donating items. That way the hotel employees don't get in trouble for "stealing". Forgot to add that in my earlier post.

    And make sure they don’t mail them back to you 😀

    I traveled for a living all of my life, and I have never had a hotel mail me any of the dozens of items I’ve left in hotel rooms. I don’t think there is much chance they will mail you your old shoes.

    We have spoken to people who have had things mailed back

    SandyFeet, Have a lovely trip.
    I'm going soon. May I ask for a small favor if you are going with Tauck. Could you. please keep an eye on Day#6 BBQ for lunch to have an idea when it starts, I will skip it, I have another tour to Sandwich Harbour and would like to know at what time the sail part of the activities ends, so I can move my other tour it accordantly if I need to.
    Thanks
