Thinking of going June 2017, most likely for about 2 weeks

Anyone been if so what do I need to know?
Is self driving a good option or should I stick with a tour?
Any recommendations on tour companies?

Go ahead and order yourself a Tiny Coffin, in all seriousness though I have heard the Skeleton Coast is really cool, just difficult to get too. Would advise to not use a boat or ship to get to it. Weird the Germans left it.

Pretty sure you will be given aids upon landing.

So I made here in June didn't get Aids. Me and my lady did a self-drive with Wild Dog Safaris. If you're going to self-drive I would suggest you have some level of comfort and experience with a 4x4 and some basic off-road skills. Not much in the way of paved roads, with most of the roads being dirt or gravel that can be heavily rutted at times. Highly recommend staying at Africat a few days.
