Windhoek and Swakopmund at night

Wait 5 sec.

Hello, I will be visiting Namibia in a couple weeks for my honeymoon and I'm really excited to see and experience your country with my new wife. I have done a lot of research and feel very prepared and have one question about Windhoek and Swakopmund. I have seen that tourists should not to walk around in the city's at night which I understand but some of the restaurants I'm planning on going to are very close to our accomodation would it still be advisable not to walk? So in Windhoek I'd like to go to Joe's Beer house and I am staying 0.5miles further down on Nelson Mandela avenue, would it be silly of us to just walk as it's so close assuming we are going back to our accomodation ~21:00 Similar in Swakopmund I'd like to go to Jetty 1905 and accomodarion is about 0.7miles back up Sam Nujoma Avenue It feels silly to get a taxi 2 minutes down the road. I am happy to drive but I would like to have a couple beers as I have read great things about Namibia's beer. I would never drink and drive even a short distance, especially not in a foreign country where I am a guest so it means I can't have a drink. Just looking for advice on if it would be silly of me to consider walking to and from these spots, thank you. PS: if you have an recommendations for pitstops between these spots let me know!
