I had the pleasure of being guided by Asser during my research trip from the University of Cambridge to Lüderitz in January 2023. I was looking for a guide whose knowledge was inclusive and well rounded, giving me an insight into all facets of the complicated history of this town, the surrounding area and Namibia as a whole. Asser was thoughtful and thought provoking and adjusted our time in accordance with my specific interests. His local knowledge and connections meant that I was able to gain access to a disused church and house my great-grandfather had worked and lived in. He is very professional, personable and has a great sense of humour. I would highly recommend him as a guide.
