Louise - OverlandingAfrica.com19 Aug 2009: Hi Alexandros, We have various tours visiting the Himba Village in Namibia. Depending on how much time you have in total you can either visit the Himba's on a 21 day Cape Town to Victoria Falls tour or during a short 6 day tour from Swakopmund to Victoria Falls. As the Himbas are still a natural African tribe living their normal lives they do not allow people to actually sleep in their village. We camp just a short distance from the village and visit them during the day. Email us with your time frame if this is something you�d like to do and we'll send you some more info. Cheers!
