Something not right?

Description

Enormous chunk of metal, fallen from space. I found it worthwhile the N$40 SADC rate, but it really must be something you're interested in or you're just in the neighbourhood. Price now is N$250 per foreign adult.

Quite a phenomenon and well worth seeing it. Doesn’t take long and the government has done a great job creating a worthwhile tourist attraction. The private farm owners Rina Amal curio shop . All staff extremely friendly and the entire place well maintained . Even though you pay, it’s money well spent and goes to a good cause

50 NB adults and 40 children. Quite expensive. But if you’re in the area, you should visit. It’s impressive as it’s pure metal from outer space.

Prices have risen: 50N$ per person for internationals. We asked them to stay the night outside, in the parking, and after asking for another 50N$, they agreed and we stayed for free.
