Just
a few kilometers from the centre of Swakopmund another world
appears. Bearing
the picturesque name of Mondesa, this side
of town is more African, more complex and, with
Charlotte Shigwedha as your guide, much more personal.
Charlotte grew up in Mondesa. She knows its character,
its
characters and its history.
With a wonderful combination of laughter and information, she
shares Mondesa with a wider
audience, an audience of tourists
keen to experience Namibia
through the eyes of Namibia’s different ethnic groups.
Mondesa Township Tours provides a well-organised tour that
reflects the history of Mondesa as well as Charlotte’s pride
in her hometown. Mondesa was established in the early 1950's
to provide housing for blacks working in Swakopmund.
Charlotte designed the tour as a part of living history,
moving from the Owambo areas to those inhabited by Damara
and Herero. At each stop a bit of culture,
a bit of history and a great deal of laughter are shared.
So ... Welcome
again, come and join in on the fun, and experience Namibia
like never before.
