It’s time you joined the club and get your card!
The Gondwana Card is more than just a key to savings; it is an invitation to explore the stunning landscapes and vibrant biodiversity of Namibia.
Whether you are a local or a Southern African Development Community (SADC) resident, the card offers a passport to unforgettable experiences at a fraction of the cost.
Here’s all you need to know about it!
Benefits of the Gondwana Card
The primary allure of the Gondwana card is the substantial discounts it offers.
Cardholders can enjoy up to 50% off accommodation at Gondwana Collection Namibia’s extensive range of lodges, camps and hotels. This benefit alone makes the card an invaluable asset for frequent travellers and explorers who want to experience Namibia’s best without breaking the bank.
Beyond accommodation, the card provides discounts on various activities and excursions. From guided game drives to cultural tours and adventure activities, Gondwana card holders can make the most of their trips while keeping costs manageable.
The card also grants access to special promotions and exclusive offers throughout the year, including additional discounts during off-peak seasons and unique package deals that bundle accommodation with meals and activities.
The Gondwana card is valid for five years from the date of issue, giving travellers ample time to plan and embark on multiple journeys.
Its flexibility allows for both spontaneous trips and meticulously planned adventures, enhancing the overall travel experience.
Membership Details and Discounts
The Gondwana card or membership discount is offered only on an individual basis. Every person travelling must have a valid Gondwana card or membership to qualify for the discount. Without it, full rates will be applied.
For Namibian citizens, including those with permanent or temporary residence permits, the Gondwana card offers a 50% discount on accommodation, excluding the Geisterschlucht Cabin.
Cardholders also receive a 25% discount on dinner and activities, and a 50% discount on camping, except at the Klein-Aus Vista Campsite. Additionally, there is a 50% discount on Camping2Go.
SADC citizens, including those with permanent or temporary residence permits, enjoy a 40% discount on accommodation, excluding the Geisterschlucht Cabin.
They also benefit from a 25% discount on dinner and activities, and a 40% discount on camping, excluding the Klein-Aus Vista Campsite. The discount on Camping2Go for SADC cardholders is also 40%.
There is a once-off application fee and renewal fee of N$ 300 for adults (14 years and older) and N$150 for children aged 6 to 13.
The Urgency of Acquiring a Gondwana Card
With travel costs continually rising, the urgency to get a Gondwana card is clear.
Immediate card acquisition allows you to start saving on your next trip.
The sooner you have the card, the sooner you can benefit from the discounts!
Savings on accommodation and activities also enable you to allocate your budget towards exploring more destinations within Namibia, allowing you to experience a greater variety of landscapes, wildlife and cultural sites.
By using the Gondwana card, you support local tourism and contribute to the preservation of Namibia’s natural and cultural heritage. Gondwana Collection Namibia’s lodges and activities are designed to minimise environmental impact and often entail community support and involvement.
