A great experience one can encounter while exhilarating the beautiful surroundings of Namibia’s dunes. This is the most popular tours, where you will ride for your life on the dunes for an hour and explore the different plants and animals in the Namib Desert, another hour you will be sandboarding and the last hour you quad back.
Quad Biking is the best way to see what Swakopmund sand dunes has to offer even at the most unreachable places where a 4x4 can’t reach. This is one of the best adventure experience.

Beautiful & very long quad tour through the sand dunes. Good guide who guided you safely. For sandboarding, head first and lying down, you had to overcome yourself, but it was a lot of fun... Except for the crawl up again:)

Apart from the transfer from Walvis Bay (port) which was a bit uncoordinated (but everything worked out in the end) the Quad Tour was an unforgettable "adventure". We are two with a guide... Willy... (each had a well-functioning quad bike) drove through this dreamlike desert landscape. The briefing and everything else was very professional. This tour has been our absolute highlight on this trip so far and will certainly remain unforgettable! Our guide also gave many interesting explanations during short stops, took great photos and videos of us... Willy thank you again!!! Finally, thanks for the transfer from Walvis Bay to Swakopmund and back (after all, over approx. 30 Km) which is not actually included in the booking. From us 1A recommendation!!!

A thrilling quad bike ride! Sand surfing party of 1 hour a little too long (30mins for 5 are enough) - we preferred to go quad biking. Flexibility to ride from 14 years. Lower cost when booking on site

3 hours including pick-up and drop-off at the guesthouse, 0.5 l water. A short briefing and helmet fitting, then off we go. We practice on the drive into the dunes, as we had already driven quads on holiday a few years ago, so that was enough. It's fun (nothing else expected), as is the sandboarding. We chose this tour because it was the only 3-hour offer on Tripadvisor. We would do it again.
