After COVID-19 hit the Namibian tourism industry hard, many experienced industry players were retrenched or had to close their entire businesses—a sad time for all.
Nadja, the owner and a well-known personality within the Tourism Industry for over 30 years was approached by former Colleagues and Friends who were affected job-wise by this Pandemic. It did not take long to think about it, and she decided to take on an entirely new start with a strong team she had worked with. This is how C Africa Safaris & Tours came to life. Employing four former Colleagues/Friends, C Africa is an entirely professional, established Company with experienced trilingual Staff and a long-time commitment to serving in the Tourism Industry.
With the Head Office in Windhoek, we also have an office based in the UK. We all love to travel, and we especially love nature and the outdoors.
Managing Director
As a born and bred trilingual-speaking Namibian, I had the privilege of being part of building the foundation of the Namibian Tourism Industry, dating back as far as the late 88’ties together with some very special people. As a Director, Manager, Salesperson, Tour guide, etc., covering most aspects of Tourism, I can pride myself on over 31 years of Experience and substantial Knowledge.
My History speaks for itself and can be summed up with 10 Years at Springbok Atlas, 13 Years at my own Company, Royal Tours, and three years at Kuoni Private Safaris, plus another few years of Tourism Training for the younger Generation. I have an absolute passion for meeting new people and being able to promote and sell Namibia and neighbouring countries.
However, my lifeline is being in the wilderness, hearing and absorbing the Voices of Nature.
Reservations
I am Carol-Jean Tap, but my peers know me as CJ. I am here to make sure you have a pleasant, fun booking experience and get acquainted with everything our beautiful country offers. I am an avid African explorer and action junkie, and I am very passionate about people. As a young girl, it has always been my dream to Manage a lodge because I was so infatuated with the beauty and magic of Namibia. I wanted to be in a position to show other people what we as Namibians have to offer, so when I started my career in tourism 15 years ago it was the beginning of a lifelong dream.
My studies after school took me into Aromatherapy but this was short-lived as I was presented with a fantastic opportunity and made my entry into Tourism and Hospitality at the esteemed NATH. After that, I completed Events management, Conferencing and courses at Damelin college. I gained experience at various leading tour operating companies over the years and can confidently say that you are in good hands with me as your reservations Specialist. I look forward to booking your tour.
Reservations Manager (Abroad)
Born in the UK, my family moved to Southern Africa when I was knee-high to a grasshopper. My childhood was spent between Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) and South West Africa (now Namibia). I moved to the UK and, not knowing what I wanted to do, joined a specialist African Tour Operator, where I had the opportunity to travel to countries such as Malawi, Zimbabwe, Botswana and South Africa.
Soon after Namibia gained their Independence, I returned, and from here onwards, it gets somewhat fuzzy; suffice it to say I started as a caterer and did a spot of guiding. When I got tired of living out of the bag and emptying sand from my vellies, I settled down in Windhoek. Over the years, I’ve experienced all facets of a Tour Operator, from consulting and marketing to the operational side. Just like some dunes that move on, I returned to the UK yet kept my roots in Southern Africa by working with a company that showcases what a phenomenal destination Namibia is!

Operations Manager
Born in Namibia, Tommy grew up in the famous Coastal Town of Swakopmund. I travelled the world after leaving school and returned home after being in Europe for 16 years.
For 17 years, I managed my business in Windhoek and then found a love for Tourism by attending a few International Travel Shows. Being an operations manager is a welcoming arrangement combining my passion for camping, travelling, and the outdoors.
Situated on a hill in a wide valley of the Waterberg mountain range, the Waterberg Valley Lodge overlooks the green valley and the red mountain walls. The canvas walls of the affordable Econo Chalets give your overnight accommodation an outdoor-feel; a double ceiling keeps the interior cool. Every chalet has its own brick bathroom and a small patio.
The Lodge is situated inside Fort Sesfontein which has been re-established authentically even to details from the ruins of a historical Fort built in 1896. The place offers a pleasant atmosphere with hot dry days and cool nights. After the adventures of the day and the culinary delights of the evening, you will enjoy a relaxing night below the Southern Cross and a fascinating star-studded sky. Fort Sesfontein is an oasis in the Namibian wilderness.
Nestled in a green Oasis, the thatched roof bungalows are grouped around the large water place / waterhole under shady palm trees and welcome the guest in the middle of the African wildlife of the Omaruru Game Lodge.
