Leaving the city centre, we head through the suburbs to the lively township of Katutura. This area, home to more than half of Windhoek’s population, is buzzing with energy and life. In Katutura, we visit the bustling 'Single Quarters' market, where you can sample traditional Namibian delicacies like mopane worms and kapana. The market's vibrant pulse and the warm interaction with locals make this a truly immersive experience.

Our journey continues with a visit to Penduka, a remarkable initiative that empowers unskilled women. Here, you will learn about Penduka’s mission to help women earn a living and support their families through traditional crafts. You’ll have the opportunity to explore and purchase unique handmade crafts, directly supporting local artisans and their communities.

Our tour concludes with a drive back to the city centre, where you’ll be dropped off at your accommodation. Reflect on the rich experiences and knowledge you’ve gained throughout the day.
