Spectacular - Spectacular four-wheel drive ride through the sand dunes and a picnic in the dunes with delicious, local specialties. Unfortunately, we have received little information in our vehicle, usually only on demand.

Fantastic Sandwich Harbour - Great four-way off-road car tour in the dunes with an excellent driver. Fantastic views from the top of the dunes overlooking the sea on one side and the desert on the other. Champagne served in the middle of "nowhere" followed by a hearty buffet... unforgettable memories!!! A dream day.

Fun in a dreamlike setting - Smooth organization, super organized from pick up at the port to return. The tour is just fun and was my highlight. Our German-speaking guide had plenty of information and stories to tell. The tour through the desert simply an experience. Plus a very tasty picnic. This trip will be remembered 😁

A special experience - We disembarked the ship on time, with a little luck, and met our guide on the pier as planned. A good start. Our guide was Kobus, very knowledgeable and forthcoming with all sorts of information about the land and country. On the 4x4 vehicle trip to Sandwich H, there were stops to see pelicans, flamingoes (not pink ) and the salt mining and beautifully coloured salt pans (pink from algae). Then it was a speedy drive on road or beach (at low tide) to Sandwich H sighting gulls, cormorants, dead or live seals on the way. We are where the Namib Desert meets the Atlantic Ocean, how cool is that. Sandwich H is amazing, the massive sand dunes are awesome, the lunch spread is fantastic with wine and cold drinks to quench our burning thirst. The return journey is a fun and thrilling ride up and over the steep dunes. We see springboks feeding. Photos do not do justice to this stunning landscape. You have to be here.

Just do it! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - When on the coast of Namibia this is a must to visit sandwich harbor spending the day on the sand dunes - even if you’ve done desert dunes elsewhere in the world this landscape exceeds any and all! We were on a cruise and the company communication, transport and timing were all excellent. Martin did a fab job driving us all day and was most careful when on the sand. We also had a stop by the seaside where canapés made by Abby - zebra and champagne amongst the choices - were served, nice touch! Highly recommend ⭐️

Marvelous sand dunes and tour guides - We had an absolutely wonderful time on this tour. The pick up and drop off from the cruise port were smooth. Our guide Martin was super friendly and took great care of us. Lunch was fabulously prepared by Abbie. And the sand dunes were magnificent. Overall we had one of the best tours I have ever been on.

Once in a lifetime experience - Excellent excursion, We enjoyed a safe but exciting ride along the sand beach when the tide was out, then up and around the dunes. Atop the dunes, we were served a delicious, upscale picnic with a variety of appetizers and beverages. We saw jackals, flamingos and the red salt beds.
