About Chameleon Safaris

Born in Windhoek and raised in Rehoboth, Bronhil has a vibrant, energetic personality that makes him blend right in as a Chameleon. As a camp assistant, he takes pride in helping guests around camp and entertaining them with campfire stories. Aus, near Lüderitz, is his favourite place for its wild weather and scenery.

Gideon is one of Chameleon's coolest tour guides — he loves driving, travelling and meeting people from around the world. He grew up in the Oshikoto region of northern Namibia and is passionate about showing visitors his country. Before tourism he worked as a taxi driver and in security; guiding opened a whole new chapter.

Gregory joined Chameleon in 2021 as a day trip guide and now leads 12-day adventures across Namibia. He grew up on a farm outside Windhoek and loves that every bend in the road brings something new. Around the campfire his deep voice takes centre stage — and his creamy bacon pasta is legendary.

Before becoming one of Chameleon's veterans and long time drivers, Johnny grew up in the North of Namibia, Oshikoto looking after cattle and goats. Later Johnny also moved to the coastal town of Walvis Bay, where he became very fond of the dunes, making the desert his favourite place to visit. Johnny firmly believes one can never go wrong with a proper braai in the desert after a long day.

Born in Oshakati and raised in Walvis Bay, Josef grew up with a love of soccer. He moved to Windhoek for studies and joined Chameleon in early 2023 as a day trip guide; he now runs multiday safaris too. He enjoys meeting guests and seeing their reactions to Namibia's culture and landscapes.

Kennedy, a Travel & Tourism graduate, ran our free walking tour in 2017, impressing all those that met him with his extensive knowledge of Windhoek. After 1 year of wandering the city streets and enlightening all those he met, Kennedy joined the team as a trainee tour guide and has made the grade. He is now a guide running great safaris on his own.

Michael is one of our drivers, getting you safely between Namibia's best destinations. He grew up in Otjiwarongo and enjoys a calm, steady approach to life. Etosha is his favourite stop — a perfect match for someone who loves animals and meeting new people.

Having a very quiet demeanour, Raymond grew up in Windhoek with his parents and visited his grandparents during the holidays. One can say that he partially lives his dream job as a day trip guide and is in training to become one of the multiday guides of Chameleon Safaris. He enjoys travelling and making memorable meals for the guests. His favourite place to visit is Luderitz, Sossusvlei, and Swakopmund.

Smithley was born and raised in Windhoek. Quiet at first glance, he is formidable on the football pitch. As a camp assistant he is eager to learn and loves sharing Namibia's culture with travellers from around the world.

Taimi was one of our interns who took to running our free walking tour in November 2018 and has done so with boundless enthusiasm until she worked towards her bigger dream. Today she is our only female guide, running 12-day Classic Namibia Camping Safaris with ease and as a foodie, she ensures that you will have the best meals ever on safari with her.
