What an experience. A very experienced tour guide was on time with a comfortable vehicle. We learnt a lot and visited interesting places within the townships. The people we met were lovely and we enjoyed every aspect of the tour. Highlights included the children at the daycare centre, meal in a private home, the market and the clicking language. Highly recommend this company and tour guide. Don’t forget to bring some lollipops for the children.

It’s wonderful to know that the guide’s punctuality, experience, and comfortable vehicle helped make the tour smooth and memorable. We’re especially happy that the township visits, the warm people you met, and cultural highlights like the daycare centre, shared meal, market, and the clicking language left such a strong impression. Your recommendation truly means a lot to us, and thank you for the lovely tip about bringing lollipops for the children—it’s always appreciated and brings big smiles 😊 We hope to welcome you back again one day. Safe travels and thank you for choosing our company
DO NOT deal with this company. They did not turn up... neither email nor their phone number worked. Even our hotel couldn't contact them. Useless!
Good day thank you for your feedback unfortunately This was Tour was a no-show tour client/agent gave the wrong pick up Point for Tour pick up point was in a different town This is our contact details +264816596338
Great tour with Frans to Mondesa township. We got a real insight into life and culture, food and music. A highlight was the Rivonia a cappella singing group. Don’t miss this tour if you like meeting people and learning about their lives
My guide did a great job of presenting the township history and culture and was attuned to me as a client. Tour was rushed tho as they did their advertised 5 hour tour in 3 hours and picked me up several hours late so they squeezed in an extra tour that day. Put profit ahead of client care
This tour is both historically fascinating (the townships were set up in apartheid times) and in terms of contemporary Namibia. Far from 'poverty tourism' Nande's trip gives you a real insight into the vibrancy of the townships around Swakopmund and the communities that live there. Nande is super cool and an excellent guide and we enjoyed the opportunity to walk around, chat to people, enjoy a local breakfast and particularly to listen to an amazing local a capella group. We were a small mixed group of adults and teenagers and for everyone this was a highlight of our Namibia trip.
Dear Isael, Wow thank you so much for the fantastic review,this was a great pleasure to have you on our tour ,so you explore the real namibia,and to engage with the local people,we wish you a great stay in Namibia, Best regards from our team,
The township tour we (family of 4) with Nande was one of the highlights of our Namibian holiday. Nande took us through the swakopmund township meanwhile giving lots of background information. Meeting and talking to the people of his neighbourhood is something you must not miss! Very impressive.
Dear Egbert, Thank you so much for your great review on TripAdvisor,we appreciate your support and making a difference in our community, Thank you and keep well Best Regards Nande Junias
