Ghaub is historically significant as one of the old mission stations in South West Africa. The cave was rediscovered in 1913 by the missionary Heinrich Vedder. The entrance is locked; You need to take the guided tour if you want to see it. The hike through the cave is exciting, adventurous, and requires some fitness. At many places only crawling or sliding is possible. The game drive reportedly is not worth the time and money. Its only attraction, the rhinos, can be seen from the farm house and the camp site. While not exactly tame, they are used to humans and won't run away from cars or people. There's also a farm drive, explaining the rather uncommon economic activities. For Namibia, Ghaub is extraordinarily wet, a former swamp, and offers unusual vegetation. This drive is worth considering, and rhinos will be seen here, too. The restaurant is for overnight visitors only, and the food is mediocre at best.
