NamLeisure Card launched in Namibia

To promote the growth in domestic tourism, the Namibia Wildlife Resorts (NWR) launched a brand new product, the NamLeisure Card, earlier this year at the Namibia Tourism Expo. This card is now also promoted at the Ongwediva Annual Trade Fair. With the introduction of Namleisure Card, NWR is offering a 50% discount on the enrolment fees until end of August 2013. Applications can be made at the NWR stand at the Ongwediva Annual Trade Fair (Queen’s Hall stand 1 and 2) as well as the NWR central reservations office in Windhoek. The membership card offers Namibians a 50% discount at any of the 19 NWR facilities. SADC and international independent travellers can also apply, qualifying for discounts of 25% and 10% respectively. The benefits of being a member go beyond the discounts, as NWR is dedicating a portion of the proceeds of the membership fee, as well as 5% of the value of any member booking, towards conservation projects, including the NWR-Enviro-Kidz program. The Envi-Fund contribution is an annual cost towards conservation and research projects in protected areas. In addition the cardholders can also benefit partners and co-travellers that are sharing rooms and camping sites. Non-cardholders pay 50% plus a supplementary rate when sharing a room or a camping site with a NamLeisure card holder.
