    Awesome dunes adventure

    Nick_W, Jan 2026
    Can’t recommend enough.Communication from the tour operator 10 out of 10.Pickup perfectly planned and on time.Tour guide “Gift” was awesome with great knowledge and driving skills within the dunes park.My wife is wheelchair bound and this was not an issue at all.Got to see some great wildlife as well, with a well presented picnic in the middle of the tour.

    Hi Nick! Thank you for your excellent review! We are thrilled to hear that you both had a fantastic time on your trip. We hope to welcome you back again soon! :)

    Amazing Experience.

    Amazing experience on this tour. We can recommend it without hesitation. Rudy, our driver made our trip a most memorable occasion. Sun Sail Catamarans, the company providing the tour went above and beyond to ensure we were able to participate in the trip as the cruise ship we are on was late getting into port and then there were no shuttle buses available to take passengers off the port but they contacted us to say they would send a driver to pick us up and transfer us to the arranged pick up point. Very impressed with this company.

    Don't book on App

    Albertina_B, Apr 2024
    The tour was amazing,Hardes ,our guide, was great.The only issue is booking on this app,they actually deduct funds from your account before confirming if the dates are available.I had to change my dates long after I paid which was a huge inconvenience..I had to stay in the area an extra day,which was costly. I would advise anyone interested in the tour to book straight at the offices instead on this app.

    Amazing day with an amazing guide!

    What a day!?!? We only had a short time but our expert guide Max really showed it all to us. He knew how to really push the experience to the max and we loved every minute of it!

    Thrilling unique experience.. ask for Bertie

    AnnaLloyd, Feb 2024
    We had an amazing time with Bertie. He was so knowledgeable about the flora and Fauna. He certainly loves his country. Our lunch served on a table amongst the dunes. Very filling lunch with sparkling wine and beer and soft drinks. Being slightly senior he aimed the 4x4 tricks for our comfort but we still had a thrill riding through the dunes.

    An unforgettable experience

    Vaughan_N, Jan 2024
    Our driver Max was skilful and knowledgeable. He led a group of three 4x4, stopping periodically to see flamingoes, the salt pans and, the highlight, the beautiful dunes around Sandwich Harbour. The atmosphere was relaxed and convivial, and we gained great confidence in Max’s ability to traverse the various ascents and descents throughout the dunes. A generous picnic with a good choice of drinks was included. Altogether a wonderful experience.

    We are glad you had a wonderful experience, we hope to see you again and we hope you are enjoying the rest of your cruise. Thank you for coming.

    Bahaing in the Namibia Dunes

    Cody was a confident driver & ensured that we were comfortable with the pace on the dunes. He explained about the animals that lived in the desert & found a gecko to show us, which he handled very carefully & returned to her den. The picnic lunch was a plus as we hadn't expected it. The comradery between he & our companion driver made the trip more fun. I would recommend this trip for anyone visiting Namibia.

    The guide dug out a little gecko from his hiding spot on the dunes, and perfect spot chosen in the dunes for the well prepared snacks.

    Spectacular Tour

    Colette_M, Nov 2022
    Seeing the flamingos, jackals, seals and ostriches and driving up and down the dunes were the highlights for f the tour. Jonathan was a great guide.

    Grand huit sur les dunes

    Yvon_L, May 2024
    L'excursion était absolument fantastique le circuit sur les dunes avec un virtuose du volant nous a donné des frissons mais de plaisir tout c'est bien passé jusqu'au 5 dernières minutes car notre excursion avait été retardée par un véhicule enlisé que nous avons dû secourir donc nous étions en retard pour rejoindre notre croisiere Au retour nous avons demandé à être déposés à l'entrée du port car nous étions très justes pour prendre notre bateau et là pour faire un simple petit kilomètre il nous a été demandé de payer et de façon pas vraiment aimable Nous restons néanmoins contents de viator et pensons que ce n'est qu'un regretable incident

    Great experience !

    Nadge_L, Dec 2023
    Super expérience dans les dunes, paysage grandiose à perte de vue, une faune et une flore incroyables.

    Indimenticabile...

    Paola_R, Sep 2023
    Indimenticabile esperienza persi nell'infinito delle dune: camminare sulla sabbia delle dune senza scarpe, sedersi sulla cima di una duna mirando il mare è un'esperienza indimenticabile

    Es hat sich gelohnt!

    Michael_B, Jan 2023
    Schöne Fahrt vorbei an vielen Flamingos, Pelikanen, haben auch Springböcke gesehen. Sehr umsichtiger Guide, der viel erzählt und den Wagen sicher aber spektakulär durch die Dünen manövriert hat.

    Highlight in Namibia

    Firas_A, Jun 2021
    Das absolute Highlight während einer Reise in Namibia. Die Agentur ist äusserst zuvorkommend und reagierte sehr flexibel auf unsere unvorhersehbaren Planänderungen, die es während einer Namibia-Reise oft gibt. Vor allem die Tour mit Andre ist unvergesslich!! Definitiv weit aus mehr als nur 5 Sterne verdient !!!
