I started my career in the hospitality industry by offering city and township tours in and around the capital city of Namibia, Windhoek over twelve (12) years ago as a freelance tour guide. Studying business administration, and later joining hospitality short courses, I ventured into offering tours and safaris around Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe to a vast number of international student travellers. I have thus worked with university groups (under-and-post grads), interns, volunteers, and mainstream travellers for over twelve (12) years. I have experience in working with travellers of all ages from all walks of life, and I've also worked with various US-based universities, colleges and have long standing service-level agreements with them. I do have extensive travel experience, having visited the United States, Canada, Western and Eastern Europe numerous times, and having lived in Scandinavia as well. I am extremely passionate about adventure travel, nature, wildlife, conservation and cultural history. I conduct one day and multi -day tours relating to geology, wildlife viewing and conservation, topography, archaeology, history, site seeing, adventure, and cultural interactive experiences. All my tours can be customized upon request I've been working in the tourism space in Southern Africa for well over a decade, and thus possess the necessary skillset in assisting travellers with any planning pertaining to their Southern African vacations, guiding, consulting, and bookings. Although most of my safaris tend to be in and around Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe, I am well informed and familiar with the entire Southern African region. I am not a truck driver and can only hire an additional driver for large group (over 12 people) tours which require the use of a overland/safari truck.

Overview of your Windhoek tour

The Namib Desert and the Namibian Atlantic coastal tour not of offers visitors an opportunity to see this fascinating and awe-inspiring landscape, but also provides them with an interesting and historical experience of this wonderful region. The Namib Desert is home to some of the world's tallest sand dunes, and I am more than happy to offer you a tour in discovering the Sossusvlei, as well as the Sesriem canyon, and Deadvlei area during this tour. These are some of my favourite places. After a wonderful experience in the dunes, I will then drive you through to Swakopmund, a quint and cosy town on the Namibia Atlantic coast. This town is unique due to its German architecture, the habitation of OvaHerero and Nama tribes (local Namibian tribes), and wonderful eatery culture. Namibia has already appeared in articles in the New York Times, and has even been dubbed as one of the must-see destinations!

We will travel via the Namib Naukluft Mountains, known for their interesting and ancient geological history.
