Our Windhoek Namibia tours take you to the country’s capital city. Windhoek sits on a high plateau in the centre of Namibia. The city acts as Namibia’s commercial, industrial and financial hub. German colonial history shaped much of its architecture. Independence in 1990 added new landmarks too.

Windhoek has plenty of sights worth exploring. Visit the Tintenpalast, home to Namibia’s parliament. See the Reiterdenkmal, a well-known monument in the city. Step inside the Christuskirche, a striking German-style church. Explore the old fort and browse the local museums. Wander the markets for local crafts and souvenirs.

Culture runs deep in Windhoek too. Join an Ancient San Skills tour to learn traditional ways of life. Local guides show you tracking, fire-making and hunting skills used by the San people for generations. Hungry after a day of sightseeing? Head to Joe’s Beerhouse. This popular spot serves traditional Namibian food in a lively setting.

Want to get outdoors? Hike through the Daan Viljoen Nature Reserve, just outside the city. Start early and look out for giraffe, eland and other wildlife along the trail. Cool off with a swim in the natural pool at the end of your hike. Book one of our Windhoek Namibia tours and experience the best of Namibia’s capital.
