Walvis Bay Airport to Walvis Bay Town Centre transfer: the easiest way to get there

Haqqi Tours' Walvis Bay Airport to Walvis Bay Town Centre airport transfer is met at arrivals, priced in advance and driven by someone who does this route every week.

Arriving at Walvis Bay Airport (WVB)
Walvis Bay Airport (WVB) lies in the desert about 15 km east of the town centre, 15 to 20 minutes by car, with flights from Windhoek, Johannesburg and Cape Town; Swakopmund is about 45 km away by road.
Airports feel bigger after a long flight, and Walvis Bay Airport is no exception. That is why your confirmation carries the exact meeting point for this airport, the driver's name and a phone number: when you walk out of arrivals you know where to look. The driver has been following your flight, so a late landing or a slow bag belt changes nothing about your Walvis Bay Airport to Walvis Bay Town Centre transfer.
Searches for "WVB to Walvis Bay Town Centre" or "WVB airport transfer" land here for a reason: WVB is the airport code for Walvis Bay Airport, and this is the private-car service that connects it with Walvis Bay Town Centre.

To the south-west the lagoon draws flamingos and birdwatchers, and to the south the dunes run straight into the sea at Sandwich Harbour, reached on guided 4x4 tours. The climate is cool and often misty, even in summer.

Why travellers choose Haqqi Tours for Walvis Bay Town Centre transfers
We run airport transfers in dozens of cities, and the Walvis Bay Town Centre route follows the same simple promise as every other: one fixed price for the whole vehicle, agreed in writing; a driver who tracks your flight and meets you at arrivals; a vehicle matched to your group and your luggage; and a desk that answers. It is the way we would want to arrive ourselves.
Pickup options and waiting time
When you book on WhatsApp, you choose one of two pickup options for your arrival:
- Flight tracking: your driver is at arrivals the minute your flight lands and waits for up to 60 minutes. If your flight lands at 2:00 pm, the driver is there at 2:00 pm.
- Fixed time (no tracking): your driver arrives at a time you choose and waits for up to 60 minutes from that time. Send us your flight number and we check its real landing times over the past 10 days to recommend the best pickup time.
At most airports the included waiting time is 60 minutes; at some it is 90 minutes. We confirm the exact waiting time for your airport when you book with us on WhatsApp. After that, the driver cannot wait longer: the fixed price is based on one hour of airport parking and the driver's time, and with more than 30 transfers a day, every booking is scheduled back to back.
With flight tracking, normal delays are covered. If your flight is delayed by more than 5 hours, we cannot guarantee a new pickup at the last minute, because the new arrival time is uncertain and other transfers are already scheduled. Message us as soon as the delay is announced: we always do our best to rearrange, but it depends on the number of bookings that day. With a fixed-time pickup, the time slot is reserved for you and cannot be changed on the day, even if your flight is delayed or something unexpected happens.
Two hours before your flight lands, we send you your driver's name and phone number on WhatsApp. If you are still in the air, the message will be waiting for you as soon as you switch on your phone. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
