What To Expect

These San are the only Bushmen in Windhoek who share their ancient knowledge of the traditional hunter-gatherer lifestyle. This guided tour will take you on a delightful two-hour walk, featuring a variety of stops to enrich your experience. It is designed to be easy and suitable for all ages and fitness levels. You will learn about the ancient wisdom of bush plants and how the San people use them for different purposes. Also, you will get an introduction into their Click-language, and they will show you how to read animal tracks. You will watch them making fire in a traditional way and they will dance for you. Learn how to make jewelleries out of the shell of ostrich eggs and get a better comprehension about their current life situation in Namibia. Through this activity the culture of the San can remain alive, and the younger generations can acquire nearly forgotten skills. The income from these activities provides the impoverished San with an opportunity to sustain themselves.
