5.00We had an amazing experience with Riaan! 4 of us gorls went on the trip. Everything went smoothly, from the pick up to drop off. No spoilers, but, get ready for the best part of your Namibian trip! We are 4 flight attendants who travel for work and of course in spare time and we can say after so many years doing tours, this one was the best! We took the full day tour and it included so many activities starting from flamingos, seals, pink lake, pink sand deset, the Sandwich Harbour, dune driving, everything! We had a blast! It was an adventurous day full of activities, laughter, interesting facts, stories and a great picnic!
Best tour you will ever take
