Windhoek to Swakopmund

360 km · about 4h · private vehicle · from N$3,900

The B2 from Windhoek to Swakopmund is a four-hour drive of about 360 kilometres, climbing out of the highlands and dropping through Karibib and Usakos before the coastal fog takes over near the sea. We collect you from your Windhoek hotel or guesthouse at a time you choose. Because the fare covers the vehicle rather than each seat, it works out well for couples, families and small groups alike.

The vehicles

What you are booking

You book a class, not a number plate. Which car in that class is on your trip is confirmed to you — make, model and registration — before pickup, so you know what to look for.

Frequently asked

How much is a transfer from Windhoek to Swakopmund?
N$3,900 for the whole vehicle in a private car. The price is fixed when you book — there is no meter, no surge pricing and no airport surcharge. A larger SUV or 4x4 is available at a higher fixed rate.
Is the price per person or per vehicle?
Per vehicle. Two people and three people pay the same, so the fare works out well for couples, families and small groups.
How long does the drive take?
About 4h in normal conditions, direct and without other passengers. Your driver will build in comfort stops on the longer routes.
Where does the driver pick me up?
Anywhere you choose in the pickup town — hotel, guesthouse, office or private address. Tell us the landmark when you book and your driver will confirm on WhatsApp.
How and when do I pay?
You book without entering any card details, and we send you a payment link on WhatsApp. Paying is what confirms your vehicle — until then the booking is provisional, because an unpaid hold does not reserve a driver. Your fare is fixed at the quoted amount from the moment you book and stays good for 45 days or until your travel date, whichever comes first.
