Crime in general is not a big problem in Namibia, but some of the major towns have experienced an increase in petty thefts and muggings. One should practice common sense by not flashing valuables about and avoiding walking alone in deserted areas and at night.
Namibia is a certainly a family-friendly destination however, and our recommendations on our Namibia Family Holidays have been chosen to deliver a safe and professional safari experience.
For self-drivers and campers, please be aware that theft from campsites, particularly those in or near urban areas, is a problem. Never leave valuables unattended.
Other than that, the usual safety precautions when out in the African wild apply. Be especially aware that hippos and crocodiles are a threat in the northern rivers - stay out of the water!
