An amazing guide, Andre and a truly remarkable tour covering contrasting areas around Walvis Bay. Firstly the Pelicans and Flamingos, the Salt Works mining and the peninsula with all the seals before turning off to the Delta, being treated with a lovely bottle of bubbly, home baking. Was truly great
