Very nice place to find souvenirs, there’s all kind of objects, crafts and art pieces that can be bought by a fixed price (making it fair as well for the people selling it. The coffee shop is a great place to find a mix of western choices and African. People are lovely there and big variety

Beautiful handmade crafts at reasonable prices that are authentically Namibian. Prices were reasonable and more appropriate than fees charged by street vendors. Staff were friendly and helpful. Lovely ambience and worth a visit.

A nice place to buy souvenirs made by local artists. I found me a Rhino made out of a tin can. This Artist is very talented to form animals and other things from tin cans. The food in the Café is great.

The Namibia Craft Centre is a great place to find souvenirs and gifts for your loved ones back home. It is located in the heart of Windhoek, making it very easy to find and they offer safe off-street parking, which is a huge convenience in a bustling city. One of the standout features is the massive variety of items they have available. Whether you're on a budget or looking to splurge, you'll find something here. From beautiful handmade crafts to superb artworks, the range of products is impressive. Another major plus was that they accepted Visa cards (not sure about the other card providers) as payment during my visit. This convenience definitely added to the overall positive experience. There is also an on-site café, which is perfect for a quick coffee break or grabbing something light to eat. To top it all off, the staff were very friendly and helpful as well. Overall, I had a great experience at the Namibia Craft Centre and would definitely recommend it to others. It is a must-visit location if you are looking for gifts in Windhoek to take home.
