Johannesburg to Windhoek, Namibia, flight path (shortest)In our experience travellers spend hours searching for the cheapest flight, but neglect spending sufficient time on car rentals. Navigate to our Windhoek car hire page to help you find the cheapest vehicle to meet your needs. Both Europcar & Avis rent vehicles from Windhoek's Hosea Kutako International Airport.

Centrally placed, the Hilton Windhoek is the best rated hotel in Windhoek - it's close to the main shopping street, with souvenir shops & museums. Spend time in the pool on the roof - both to catch a few rays as well as to take in the views of the city (can get crowded). There is no separation between the room and the bathroom (the toilet is separate), so don't invite work colleagues to share with you (unless you are very friendly!). The 7th floor rooms are best, as they have great views, but you don't hear the noise from the music on the 9th floor roof top bar.
