Drive Namibia: Namibia the land

a way of life here. Careful expedition planning and 4X4 experience is
essential. Your adventure could include awesome scenery, deep sand, jagged
peaks and rare, incredible animals such as the desert elephant. Once you leave
the city of Windhoek you are on your own with the craggy mountains and endless
miles of dust and dirt. Namibia is the place where your 4X4 fantasies become
reality.
We cannot emphasize enough the real dangers guests face when travelling
through the unfamiliar Namibian countryside.
Even if you do not plan to venture into the more remote areas, you will still
have to negotiate long stretches of dangerous gravel roads.
The number of guest-related car accidents in Namibia is frightening!

Township Tour: Katutura is a suburb of Windhoek which has its origin in the 1960's when the apartheid government decided to move all the black inhabitants out of Windhoek. For many black Namibians this controversial place has now become their home. 60% of Windhoek's population is housed here. Through much ingenuity they have changed an unwanted place with little to no infrastructure into their home. With us you will experience their culture, their lifestyle, food and even meet some residents who are helping the children in their community which have been orphaned through AIDS. Tour starts at 10h00 and lasts 2 hours 30 minutes. Refreshments included.
