About Meerkat Safaris
Locally Rooted. Passionately Driven. Authentically Namibian.
At Meerkat Safaris, we believe that every journey should be as unique as the traveler experiencing it. Founded in 2018 by Namibian tour guide Elias Fritz Kahuadi, Meerkat Safaris was born from a deep love for nature, a passion for storytelling, and nearly two decades of experience in Namibia’s tourism industry.

We are more than a tour operator -

Meet the Founder:
Elias Fritz Kahuadi
“I grew up on my grandparents’ farm and developed a love for nature early on. Later, I trained in theology, worked with communities, and eventually found my calling in tourism. After 17+ years as a professional guide, I started Meerkat Safaris to bring people closer to the soul of Namibia—with sincerity, insight, and heart.”
​
Elias is more than a guide—he’s a storyteller, a caretaker, and a friend to every traveler. His personal touch can be felt in every itinerary we create and every guest experience we deliver.
Our Mission
To offer eco-conscious, guest-centered safaris that celebrate Namibia’s natural beauty, diverse cultures, and warm hospitality - while contributing to sustainable tourism and local community development.
