Gondwana Collection Namibia recently launched its new French language website, Aux 4 coins de la Namibie.
The platform was created to promote Namibia to French-speaking markets, as demand for information in France has been increasing.
The website was launched in Windhoek on July 30 and was attended by Her Excellency, Claire Bodonyi, Ambassador of France to Namibia, tour operators who focus on the French market and French businesses established in Namibia.
“Let’s offer French people the chance to get to know the cultures of Namibia. When tourists leave Namibia, they were often not in contact with Namibians during their trip. They go from lodge to lodge. They name all the giraffes and they learn all the lions’ nicknames, but they don’t know you [the people]. Tourism is a way of connecting people,” said Bodonyi.
“The website aims to serve as a platform for potential collaborations with tour operators and other businesses with French clients who have a Namibian story to tell,” said Manni Goldbeck, Marketing Director of Gondwana.
