Excellent dune tour with Christian.

5.00Christian was an outstanding guide who was very knowledgeable about the desert and made a heartfelt effort to show us every detail and the typical animals. He definitely knew the best viewpoints, and we were alone at each one. He is an excellent dune driver with a lot of experience, unlike many others who try to power up the dunes with a lot of gas. Overall, a highly recommended trip that is truly worth the money. Particularly noteworthy is the excellent catering.
Brilliant

5.00What a brilliant afternoon tour with Christian. I highly recommend the sunset tour for two reasons: you avoid the armada of cars if there is a cruise ship around - there were a total of five cars in the afternoon compared to > 30 in the morning - and you get much better light with the interplay of shades and warm sunlight. Disadvantages: time will not be enough to go down to Sandwich harbour, you will stay on top of the dunes. And of course you will have a lot of traces of the morning tours in the sand, but hey, this is a playground, don’t expect it to be virgin. To go down you need a full-day tour. We were picked up at 14.45 at Swakopmund and were back at 20.30 - so you really get something for your money. I orderer mainly vegetarian food and was surprised by the quality of the snacks and the sparkling wine offered. This was far beyond the usual snack stuff, all vegetarian, all good. We skipped dinner completely. All in all a great afternoon and we got a private tour for the price of a standard tour. Don‘t let other operators tell you that afternoon is not a good time for Sandwich Harbour: they don‘t want to do it because guides will finish their days very late. Otherwise its a brilliant decision.
Beautiful and unforgettable!

5.00This was one of the best experiences of our entire trip! From start to finish it was incredibly well curated. Christian was so knowledgeable about of the area and navigated us safely on an adventures ride through the most beautiful dunes, along the beaches and through greenery hiding the wildlife. The sunset over the dunes and ocean was a sight we will remember forever. If you have any time at all book this tour and you won’t regret it!
