Why go

The city itself is a dinner and a rest. The desert and Etosha are why you flew.

    When to go

    The city is usable all year. Choose the dates for the dunes or the pan, then fit Windhoek around the flights.

Travel advice

  • Christuskirche, Windhoek , a noted landmark in Windhoek . This Lutheran church that looks over the city centre was dedicated in 1910.

    Before you travel

    Do not collect a car after a long flight and start a gravel road that evening. The north of the country is the malaria question, not the capital by itself.
