Taking a taxi in Windhoek is a right of passage and an opportunity to see your life flash before your eyes. Still, they're cheap and the only way to get around, if you don't have a car. Consider yourself well versed in the ways of Windhoek once you've argued about whether your trip cost 10 or 20 bucks, been glared at for paying in coins , been told to get out in the middle of the street or had a great chat, listened to dope beats and kind of made a new friend.
