Go2 transfers celebrate maiden expedition

STAFF REPORTER
The Gondwana Collection is renowned for its ability to get creative when the going gets tough.

Whether it’s injecting a dash of fun into an often fussy industry or incorporating hybrid technology into their fleet in the face of rising fuel prices, they always seem to see the bright side.

As tourism numbers improve, the industry faces a shortfall in the availability of rental vehicles. In response, Gondwana has identified an innovative solution to ensure that international and local tourists can access the most scenic parts of Namibia easily, affordably and in an environmentally friendly way.

“The massive shortage in rental cars is set to continue for some time, with vehicle production delayed and exacerbated by events like the floods in Kwazulu-Natal, while demand continually increases as the world opens its doors once again to travellers.

Namibia is increasingly becoming a destination added to travellers’ wish lists as world travel resumes,” the company said in a statement.

Your Go2 for travel

“Gondwana recently launched nine transfer routes that provide a link between our lodges through a daily hop-on, hop-off transport service for all travellers,” Jescey Bekker, the group’s brand marketing manager, said. “This transfer service has been well received, with over 30 bookings already reserved for June,” Gondwana announced.

“The Go2 Traveller Transfers are the ideal means of travel for people who prefer not to drive themselves, but who would like to retain their independence and choice of destinations, as well as for tour operators who can book multiple transfers around the country for their guests,” Bekker elaborated.

Variety

GO2 Traveller Transfers serves various routes to the country’s top destinations daily, including the Fish River Canyon, the Namib and Kalahari deserts, Damaraland, Swakopmund and the Etosha National Park. Return trips take place in the afternoon, three times per week.

The first Go2 transfer started its maiden expedition from Windhoek to Etosha this week.

A glass of non-alcoholic champagne was enjoyed by the first four passengers - from Germany and Namibia - to celebrate the start of the service.

Book now

The Go2 Traveller Transfers was available for bookings as of 20 May, and started on 1 June. Passengers can be dropped off at their respective destinations along pre-set routes.

Vehicles range in size from Quantums and Mercedes Benz Sprinters to 4×4 Iveco busses.

Each leg of the journey costs N$690 per person, and single and multiple trips can be booked online at go2.na.

While providing the Go2 Traveller Transfers, Gondwana continues to offer its selection of vehicles from Namibia2Go for self-drives, satisfying all travelling styles and individual tastes.
