Absolute recommendation, expectations exceeded - Our trip far exceeded all expectations. Stephan is a super friendly tour guide and we talked well all day. Especially paddling between the seal babies by kayak was a unique experience. They are super cute and curious, one even hopped on our kayak and went for a few minutes. Like a bunch of dog puppies, just stop in the water. Breakfast and lunch at these unreal places was also great. Driving through the dunes in an off-road vehicle and seeing schools of jackals, oryx, springbok, whales, dolphins and pelicans feels surreal. The price was relatively high, but we feel it is reasonable for what is offered. In a few years we will not remember the costs, but certainly the great experiences.

Remek idegenvezető – kihagyhatatlan túra Namíbiában! Felejthetetlen élmény volt a Sandviche bay és a dűnék felfedezése - Fantastic skilled guide – a must-do tour in Namibia! We had an amazing time exploring Sandwich Bay and the dunes with a truly outstanding guide, Völker. He took us on a safe, but thrilling 4x4 drive through the desert, showed us the largest salt refinery in the southern hemisphere, and brought us to the coastal seal colonies. He shared fascinating stories about Namibia, answered all our questions with patience, and spoke excellent English and German. Highly professional and passionate – this tour was a highlight of our trip! Thank you so much Völker!

Grandiose day with dunes and seals - We had a great day with our guide Stephan. First we drove out to Pelican Point. There we got into the kayaks and could observe countless seals up close. Afterwards we continued towards Sandwich Harbour. Stephan showed us jackals, plants and much more along the way. The scenery at Sandwich Harbour is breathtaking and thrilled us all. We were allowed to climb one dune and later climbed another. Lunch was very delicious. Stephan gave us a lot of information throughout the day and made the tour unforgettable. He was very funny, reliable and open. We can highly recommend him as a guide!
