We did the tour of Windoek and the Township with John. He was an excellent guide very informative very helpful and very friendly. We visited not only the main cultural places within Windoek but we did also go out to the Paducah craft women’s craft facility which was wonderful as well as the open Street market, which was great on a Sunday to see all the local people in the township having a family time together with the Big open barbecue within the market was very special

Our guide for the trip, Pedros, was superb. He picked us up on time and was very polite throughout. He was very knowledgeable bout the history of what is now Namibia. He took us to all the major sights and gave us information, but also allowed us to have time to explore on our own. Overall it was a great introduction to Windhoek and Namibia. We would highly recommend this as an introduction to Windhoek for anyone else.

We were picked up on time at the hotel by Petrus and warmly welcomed. His explanations about the history, the sights visited, and the project for handicapped women were interesting, detailed, and empathetic. Petrus allowed us a glimpse into his life, and we experienced at the market that he apparently knew everyone. We can only highly recommend the tour and the great guide Petrus.

Perfect tour, the past and history of Windhoek was explained very good. Thanks to Petrus, our guide. He also showed us parts of Windhoek where we never went in when we where alone exploring the city. We went to a local market in a township, showed and explained us the life in the township. He also showed us around in a project for disabled, or uneducated women. Once more: a great thank to Petrus.

It takes a special kind of traveler to appreciate these deep connections, and we are so grateful for your kindness and support. Petrus sends his warmest regards and a huge thank you back to you!🤗🫶🏻
We had an amazing day with John our guide. He was very knowledgeable and professional and went out of his way to make our day in Windhoek special. We never would have seen everything he showed us without his help. We highly recommend this tour to give you a good overview of this town and its people.

Kavana Tours City Tour of Windhoek is highly recommended. I was with Petrus, who arrived on time in an immaculate vehicle and who spent the next few hours helping me to learn a lot about Windhoek and Namibian culture and history. I learned about and saw sites related to the different tribes, the German Colonial Period, the South African period, the important freedom fighters in Namibian history and what it is like for Nsmibians today. The itinerary is the classic one for a Windhoek city tour, but the care was so personalized that it felt really special. No question or request was too much for Petrus to handle. He made sure that everything I was interested in was addressed. Aside from being knowledgeable, Petrus was also great fun to be with. A truly nice surprise on the tour was the visit to Oshetu Community Market and all we could taste and see, The tour was a truly a great and memorable one.

The Oshetu Community Market is a special place close to our hearts, and we are so glad you got to experience its warmth friendly atmosphere and flavors. You arrived as a guest, but you left as a part of our story. Thank you for choosing us to guide you through Windhoek, and we truly hope our paths continue to cross again and again !
