The experience was fabulous. Thank you to volker for his good humor, explanations and especially his kindness. We had a great time in the company. The encounter with seals, a little scary at first then after we let go and we supercharge the moment.

We booked the two tours on-site and couldn't have been more lucky. Riann is an experienced driver with a friendly attitude: he took us to Moon Valley and Welwitschia on one day and to Sandwich Harbour the day after. He also drove us through Swakopmund! A truly unforgettable experience.

Our guide Volker of the tour operator “Desert, Dunes & Dust Tours” impressed us with his knowledge and riding ability. We were traveling with a GWM (Chinese four-wheeler jeep) and were impressed by all the animals we saw in this barren landscape. Highly recommended.

Our group of 6 travelled in two cars on the half day dune trip with Winton and Volker . We all had such an awesome experience , I’d normally be a scaredy cat heading down a 43% gradient sand dune 150 m high!! I had full trust in their driving capabilities and it was an exhilarating experience. Thankyou for making this a highlight of our Namibian trip.

We had a fantastic Sandwich Harbour & Seals tour today – an absolute highlight of our Namibia trip! A very special thanks goes to our guide Stephan: professionally top, extremely committed and incredibly funny, funny and entertaining. You immediately notice that he is there with passion and his enthusiasm is infectious. There was plenty to eat and drink. The tour was perfectly organized, exciting and relaxed at the same time – we felt in good hands at all times. Clear 5 stars – we would go back with Stephan anytime! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We had an absolutely incredible day with our driver and guide, Riaan. Originally, we booked only a half-day tour, but we enjoyed it so much that we extended it to a full day. It was completely worth it. Riaan is extremely knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely fun to be around. We never felt bored for a second. The whole experience was smooth, interesting, and full of great moments. We’ve just come back and are still processing all the experience it really was one of those days you remember. It was absolutely worth the money, and we don’t regret a thing. If we had the chance to do it again, we would without hesitation. Highly recommended !especially if you get a guide like Riaan, who truly makes the experience special.
