Great tour to learn about the way of life in the township

I am very happy I did this tour. I wanted to see and learn more of the townships in Windhoek. I’ve heard a lot of great things about guide Linda and she was my guide too. Very friendly, knowledgable she did a great job. A good way to learn about the city’s history and life in the townships. You are mostly in the car. A township tour I did in South Africa was on foot but that was a much smaller township so I understand why this one was by car. Visiting the market was interesting and the Kapana...read more

Ein Besuch im wichtigen Teil Windhuks

Eine beeindruckende Erfahrung. Wir sind mit dem Auto durch Katutura gefahren. Viele Menschen leben hier unter teilweise einfachsten Bedingungen. Dann sind wir zu Penduka gefahren, eine Frauenorganisation für Frauen. Powerful! Schließlich gab es Kapana. Nicht irgendein Kapana, das Beste! Alles sehr interessant. Und Ketu, unser Guide war freundlich und es war schön, sich mit ihm zu unterhalten.

Katutura mit Linda

Eine absolut unvergessliche Tour! Linda hat uns Katutura auf so ehrliche, respektvolle und faszinierende Weise nähergebracht. Ihre lokale Perspektive und ihr tiefes Wissen haben diesen Ausflug zu einem Highlight unserer Namibia-Reise gemacht. Sie hat uns Orte gezeigt, die man als Tourist alleine niemals gesehen hätte, und uns gleichzeitig einen tiefen Einblick in den Alltag und die Lebensrealitäten der Menschen vor Ort gegeben. Wer Katutura wirklich verstehen möchte, ist bei Linda in den besten ...read more

The perfect beginning for our Namibian adventure.

This was such an extraordinary experience. We were picked up by our guide and driver. Both were so warm and friendly and lived in Katutura. We had a mini-tour of downtown Windhoek (it's a pretty mini-downtown) with a lot of history, then headed over to Katutura and wrapped up with incredible barbecued meats at the kapana there -- a big, communal experience. What made this experience extraordinary and a crucial foundation for our trip is that our guide was willing to tell us about his own family ...read more

Absolut empfehlenswerte Tour

Großartige Tour um Land und Leute besser zu verstehen. Geschichte und heutige Aspekte wurden gut verbunden und kurz und verständlich erklärt. Unsere Kinder haben bei der Tour mehr gelernt als in der Schule. Linda hat immer sehr spannende und interessante Aspekte erzählt und konnte jede Frage beantworten.
