10/10 - excitement max. - I-N-G-O is an incredible tour guide! Very informed about the desert and the life it has - he located a lizard for us to see, that was so cool! He showed us thinks about the sand I didn’t know were possible and overall, his energy and vibe was immaculate! We are very greatful that he was so accommodating to us needing to take a million pictures. 10/10 would recommend. The experience itself was magical as well, if you’ve got the energy go for manual but if you’re here to enjoy the ride without too much hassle, the e-bikes are so worth it! Enjoy out there! Thank you Ingo!

Great scenic desert tour! Highly recommended - Did the scenic tour with Hanjo - great route to see the desert and Hanjo was very informative and we learnt a lot about the desert as well as Swakopmund (we stumbled across a Chameleon!). One of the best ways to see the area for sure! Highly recommend

Highlight of our trip to Namibia so far! - We went fat biking as part of our cycle trip with Exodus. This was the highlight of our trip so far and far exceeded my expectations. We cycled across the granite plains and right up into and over the sand dunes. It was exhilarating and fantastic fun! Our guide was really professional and extremely knowledgeable of the natural history of the area. The bikes were of a very high spec and were extremely well maintained. All in all it was a fabulous 4 hour trip.

You must have done that - A unique experience, a fat bike tour. You have to have done that. You get so much information and driving on the dunes is really fun and moody

Bucket list activity! - As an endurance athlete who dabbled in a bit of everything, riding the dunes in Namibia had been on my list for quite while. The tour was well organized, educational, thrilling, and pushed me to my limits (although could be scaled back to accommodate all skill and fitness levels). Loved it!

A bike ride like no other - A once in a lifetime experience... cycling over the dunes and on the beach, soaking up the sun of the dunes and the chill from the Atlantic. The guide was friendly and helpful. The fat bikes were suitable to make the trip pleasant.

Professional and good with children - Nice and professional guides who took very good care of our children, 10 and 12 years. The tour itself was nice but not so challenging, only two downhills.
