    Africans, let’s support African Tourism. Instead of only going to Maldives visit Zanzibar , Tanzania. Instead of only going to Dubai visit Namibia. Visit islands of Seychelles, Mauritius, and Cape Verde.
    Africa is so diverse with the most beautiful landscapes in the world. We have mountains 🏔 , deserts, pyramids , tropical islands 🏝.
    The media will never show you these things because they don’t want us to explore Africa and realize how much our continent is worth.

    Hello Mr. Maya, it was this video which spurred me to go to Namibia for 30 days in June of 2022 as a tourist. I am American. What a marvelous country Namibia is! I had a wonderful time there seeing the sights which you feature in this video. I also went to the hinterlands of Namibia and saw an abundance of wildlife, and exquisitely beautiful mountains, canyons, and deserts. Everywhere I went Namibians were hospitable and welcoming. All of the cities and towns are so clean. No litter anywhere. I cannot recommend Namibia enough to anyone wanting to go to an unspoiled, beautiful place.

    Namibia worth visit. We visited this August 2023 because of you Wode. My children are begging that we return again. Lots of tourism activities!!! Two weeks were not even enough. Boat cruise and sandwich harbour drive game in desert of Walvis Bay, Etosha park and watching the sun set from Windhoek were my top 3. Visit Namibia you will change your mindset about Africa 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤

      Correction. In 2019 we had about 1,6 million tourist, which is so far the highest we ever had. For 2020 Namibia was predicted to be the most visited country in Africa. Well, but then came corona.
      Ministry of Environment and Tourism is doing just about enough. This is because they mostly put effort of advertisement mostly to Europe, with Germany and then England toping. Unfortunately however, most tourists destinations aren't tailored for the local people. They are way to expensive. Alright to be honest government does give local Namibians lower rates on Government owned destinations but for a many people, it is yet still too expensive. Private lodges, one can almost forget about them, for the majority Namibian people. There, tourists seeking Safary advanture can pay up to N$70 000, for a 2 week trip.
      So basically we do need to improve the industry, which is mostly run by whites, to become more local and African countries friendly. Having said this and while I do not have the latest figures Angolans have always been the highest visiting numbers to Namibia. The rest of countries are as follows: South Africa, Zambia, Germany, Zimbabwe, Botswana, France, United Kingdom, United States and the Netherlands. Latest rising editions are the Nordic countries then Spain and Italy. Angolans mostly come for medical services and educational purposes.
      So I say, if it was my choice, yes, please bring us the rest of Africa, to our beautiful country.

If we are not bold and confident to embrace ourselves and be grateful for what we have right now, we will continue to complain and complain until every natural resource disappears right infront of us.

    As a Namibian, am humbled by the content of this video. I can definitely assure anyone who wishes to visit and have the experience of what our land has to offer, that our country is indeed that and more beautiful and peace is just icing on top. I have lived in both the capital city (Windhoek) and coastal towns which is Swakopmund and Walvis Bay. It's a lot of scenery beauty, adrenaline /adventures to embark on and that too more to explore.
    I must really appreciate Maya for doing an amazing job with the marketing in this video and hope we as African Brothers and sisters can fall more inlove with what our continent as to offer. THANK YOU Maya. I stabled and watched your video for the first time and am subscribing.

    As member of the diaspora (particularly Jamaica) I can honestly say that the education system has failed us tremendously. The only thing we know is that our ancestors were taken from West Africa. Many of these countries you have visited they don't teach us about including Namibia. It is really up to us to change the narrative as Wada Maya would say. You're doing a great job 👏

    Wode Maya, kindly ask President Nana Akufo Addo that instead of taking his family to London for his annual break they could all go to Namibia - for a fraction of the cost and tons of the joy.
    Btw, I hope you didn't miss Luderitz? Far down south but worth the drive. The dunes there are of a unique colour - between copper and violet depending on the daylight 🤗

    This video has won me over. I must definitely visit Namibia, the home country of Frankie Frederick. However, African leaders must take the issue of ease of movement within Africa and between Africans very seriously. Sometimes getting flights can be so difficult and costs so much that it is even easier to travel to Europe than within Africa. How about visa restrictions and xenophobia? Mother Africa is the best place on Earth. Arise Africa. Let Africa and Africans unite and live proudly,

      In Windhoek, the capital, homophobia is really not a big thing. You will always get those that stare at you and also do with mix race couples but it ends there, a simple stare and internal judgement by those narrow minded people, and life goes on. The smaller towns....homosexuality will be tolerated but I wouldn't suggest going into a pub and making a public display of it. Alcohol and cultural differences in opinion creates stupidity. So in short, being homosexual will not be a problem if you can keep it respectable when in public, same as heterosexual relationships. Hope that helps. Now go and explore the beauty of Namibia in which it was never mentioned of having the big 5 animals at Etosha pan up in the North.
