Reviews: Coast and Sandwich Harbour

"Our guide, Ernst of Turnstone Tours, gave us a wonderful experience, with a lot of the history of the area, geological factors and the natural history of the sea and the dunes. It was an exhilarating drive along the beach at high tide and we were the only people at our destination. We waded through lagoons and climbed the dunes for a fantastic view. Thoroughly recommended!"

"Ernst our driver and tour guide for the day trip was great he was very knowledgeable and passionate about the environment and wildlife and a very experienced 4x4 driver. The trip was a full day and included a lovely two course lunch at a great location on the edge of the dunes overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. The time in Sandwich Harbour is governed by the tide and unfortunately we didn't get much time there to explore however there was lots else to see." Read more about this whole safari

"This was a lovely day out and it was refreshing to spend a day by the sea after a week in the desert. Our guide gave us an interesting tour of the coast, Sandwich Harbour and the nearby dunes. Lunch was very nice. We also enjoyed the chance to meet other Expert Africa customers on the tour and the hear about their experiences in Namibia.

Only one issue: our feet were badly sunburnt at the end of the day, as we didn't think to put suncreen on them when we took our shoes off to walk around Sandwich Harbour! It might be a good idea for Turnstone to warn people about this before they head off on their walk around the harbour." Read more about this whole safari

"A whole day gave us time to enjoy everything. Driving along the beach watching seals, cormorants, gulls at the edge of the dunes was quite special. This was followed by a birdwatching walk, an excellent lunch and afternoon drive over the dunes. This was spectacular, Ernest really knew his stuff and showed us the dune flora and fauna with energy and enthusiasm.

Could have stayed in Swakopmund another day as trip took up all our time there (and sorting out Budget car)." Read more about this whole safari
