Drive out to Mondesa Township and briefly learn about its history. Then, stroll down OB Street and get a fascinating glimpse into a typical Namibian township with the opportunity to chat to local residents and view typical homes and schools.

Stop off at a small home craft market with different artists’ crafts on offer. Drive through to DRC (Democratic Resettlement Community) where you can learn about the council estates and how the Swakopmund Municipality is improving the area.

Next, visit a traditional Nama herbalist who will share her knowledge of the Nama culture and herbal medicines. Then, take a short drive to visit a Herero lady who will discuss her dress and Herero culture (afternoon and weekend tours only).
