Luderitz on a private tour is intriguing due to this town being a bit quirky but quaint. Where it is located, it has the Namib Desert on one side and the Atlantic Ocean on the other.
Adolf Luderitz purchased the Angra Pequena and surrounding land in 1883 and hence the town of Luderitz was founded. It started as a guano harvesting town with fishing and had a trading post, but when diamonds were discovered in the nearby town of Kolmanskop in 1909, the town reaped the benefits of the new wealth in the area and the influx of more people.
The majority of the buildings in the town are of a German art nouveau architecture that is quite surreal. The best thing about this town is that little has changed in the last hundred years and you feel you are stepping back to the early 1900’s when you are here but only in looks and not facilities. It is a town that has lots to offer a tourist on sightseeing tours.
