Itinerary

Admission included240 min

Our first stop is at the Walvis Bay esplanade. Here we see the Pink Flamingos. We learn about the greater and lesser Flamingos. We drop our tyre pressure to .8 bar and are ready to take on the beach ride. We pass the pink Salt lakes of the Salt Mine and passed hundreds of waders and palearctic migratory birds in the Lagoon, along the shore to the towering Dunes of Sandwich harbour. Magnificent wide open spaces as the dunes get closer to the sea. We enter where Dunes meets sea on a narrow strip of beach. Awesome dune views and walks await us. We take a stomach tingling roller coaster ride to the Sandwich harbor view point. The bay is at your feet, surrounded by the Nara bush. Sandy sandbanks are awash in the bay and the green sea with blue sky red dunes is absolutely awesome. We take a dune drive to the best views, searching for animals in the desert and look for an unique picnic spot. Lunch with a dune view, quiet, very quiet only us around. We have time for dune and beach walks.

180 min

Our route takes us through the dunes and a game drive where we might see Ostriches , Oryx, Jackal and Springbuck. On the beach the Seals may be sleeping or playing, and if we are lucky we will see Dolphins and Whales. The route is back along the shores with thousands of birds. Sadly we end up in Walvis Bay. We tank up and air up and take your back to your hotel.

Fantastic experience with an outstanding guide!

We had an amazing experience in Namibia, and a big part of that was thanks to our guide, Riaan. He was knowledgeable, professional, and always attentive to every detail, making sure everyone felt comfortable and enjoyed the tour to the fullest. His passion for the area, friendly attitude, and willingness to share interesting information made the experience even more special. We always felt safe, well looked after, and never rushed, which allowed us to fully appreciate every moment. We highly recommend this tour and, if you have the chance, ask for Riaan. He truly made our day unforgettable!

Best sand dune experience in Namibia with Andrew

Great sand dune adventure with mesmerising view! Our guide, Andrew, was so well knowledgeable! The sand dune jeep ride was 10/10, with many thrill rides and breathtaking view! I also enjoy the Swakopmund salt lake infinity mirror experience, and seeing 70 thousands of seals, flamingos, cormorants, and turd birds! Very entertaining and best experience in Namibia! We took about 8hours adventure including 2 hour ride. Decent lunch provided. Highly recommended!

Sandwich Harbour - full day tour with a guide

We chose the "Sandwich Harbour tour" to have a guided visit throughout the day, exploring the natural wonders of Swakopmund. The guide (Ryaan) was very welcoming, nice, and super helpful for any of our needs, taking us to key points to admire the beauty of the landscape. On the way to Sandwich Harbour, we visited the flamingo colonies, as well as the salt pans in the port area. Once we entered the desert, Ryaan took us to all the most iconic spots, customizing the route to see as many typical animals as possible. We spotted ostriches, oryx, springbok, jackals, and pelicans. Ryaan gave us a special and romantic moment by preparing a light lunch on a dune with a breathtaking view of the ocean. Everything was perfect.

Operator response

We're grateful for your support and wonderful feedback. It was a pleasure sharing one of Namibia's most beautiful destinations with wonderful animal sightings with you, glad that everything was perfect. Kind regards Uwe

Top experience.

Impressive, very diverse, and all-day jeep tour. Our driver Victor was very nice, experienced, and we felt very well taken care of. Authentic and very delicious lunch in a great location. The organization on-site was top-notch and super easy (booked through My Shore Excursions; from the port of Walvis Bay). We can only recommend this tour to everyone.
