Community visits
OVAHIMBA VILLAGE
A guided tour to this village allows an insight into today’s way of life of the OvaHimba people; their ancient traditions and beliefs combined with the influence of “civilisation”. Income generated through visitors helps to sustain this tribe and support the many orphaned or abandoned children, enabling them to grow up in the selfconscious spirit of their ancestors as well as to receive school education to face the challenges of the future
