Recommend this tour for anyone - This is an amazing full day tour that we saw much more than we expected. The food and drinks in the sand dunes was something that was we found fantastic. If you do this for you will not regret it.

Must have made... - On time we were welcomed by Guide Hans on the ship. A great tour with lots of information awaited us. Hans explained everything, whether about the development and modification of Sandwich Habour, the animal and plant world or salt extraction. The drive through the dunes was fantastic and we felt in good hands at all times. The picnic at the booth at the end was absolutely delicious. We can definitely recommend this tour.

Don’t miss! Excellent tour, great value - Wild Space Adventure Safaris moved the time of our tour to better accommodate the time our cruise ship was in port. I received a very detailed email about where to meet them and what to expect. Our excellent guide Hans took great care of us and made sure we saw the best sights when the lighting was best for photos. He was very informative, friendly and accommodating. The tour of the dunes should not be missed if you visit Namibia. Hans made sure we got to see flamingos, seals, a jackal, springbok. He explained about the salt mine, gave a science lesson about the iron in the sand, provided a delicious lunch with champagne. We always felt safe, even driving down the steep dunes. We thought this tour was an excellent value.

Wild Space, Wildlife & Wild Ride - This tour was well organised. As promised, the tour operator of Wild Space Safaris contacted us 2 weeks prior to the tour date to advise of starting time & again on the day of the tour. We travelled in a convoy of about seven 4x4 vehicles, 4 persons to each. The long drive along the beach was very scenic with sightings of seals, flamingos, large flocks of cormorants, dolphins, whales & even a jackal on the beach. Our drive up & down the dunes was good for an adrenaline rush as Dune 7 is nearly 100 m high. We got to walk/slide down this dune on foot which was great. We really enjoyed the champagne/beer picnic with delicious snacks & chocolate cakes. The only small negative to the tour was that our vehicle was faulty. One rear door wouldn’t open from the inside & the window didn’t open. We needed the fresh air because there was a strong exhaust smell in the car. We would have also liked more commentary along the way. Having said that, our driver was very skilled & at no time did we feel unsafe. It was a very enjoyable tour.

Recommend doing - Great views and wildlife. Guide was friendly and knowledgeable. Many stops at very interesting places. Only negative is our pickup time was changed from 9:30 to 12:30. But as we are learning this seems to be the norm in Africa. We have done three excursions now in Africa and all three changed the time to 3 hours later. Nice lunch on the beach.
