Based at Swakopmund Guesthouse on 7 Aug 2022
"A fantastic trip and unique experience.

Very well managed and run, really interesting drive, helpful staff and we all really enjoyed this. The seals were literally close enough to touch and play with and the drive involved plenty of flamingo sightings, jackals and past the salt factory which was also very interesting.

Warm tea and sandwiches when we finished." Read more about this whole safari

"Kayaking with seals review"

Based at Cornerstone Guesthouse on 14 Jul 2022
"An excellent excursion. The team is run by 2 brothers who really want you to have a good time, they are chatty and funny and give you lots of information as you drive to the area to go kayaking.

All bases are covered, the kayaking kit is all ready and organised and warm, dry clothes are provided. The brothers come out on the water with you, encouraging you to interact with the seals and showing you how. They also take photos and send them to you later.

We really enjoyed this day despite the average weather with poor visibility.

There are large flamingo colonies which we saw on the way there and back." Read more about this whole safari

"Very gentle minimal kayak. Amazing to be so close to seal - to the point of stroking them as they played puppy like.

Knowledgable staff who talked about local area and wildlife/ birdlife on route." Read more about this whole safari

"Kayaking with seals: absolutely awesome"

Based at Cornerstone Guesthouse on 9 Jul 2022
"We loved the morning we spent with Kevin and his team. Even the drive out to Pelican Point was fabulous, thanks to their passion and knowledge.

The whole excursion was so just well thought out and well executed, with everything we needed provided and the time spent with the seals themselves was fantastic. We had no idea they were such playful and curious creatures, and the whole family loved every minute we spent with them.

Can't recommend highly enough!" Read more about this whole safari

Based at Cornerstone Guesthouse on 31 May 2022
"We feel like we got 2 excursions in 1!

Our family loved kayaking with the playful seals and watching the whales (the company was well-equipped and everything went very smoothly).

We also really enjoyed learning about the wildlife and local history from Graham as we traveled to and from the kayaking location." Read more about this whole safari

"Kayaking with seals review"

Based at Strand Hotel on 1 May 2022
"The trip was well organised and enjoyable and Kevin was a mine of information. The sea was calm and any nervousness at the prospect of kayaking was soon dispelled.

It was great fun and the seals seemed to enjoy it as well - there were lots of them!

Kevin took photos of us all at sea but disappointingly we never got one of us." Read more about this whole safari

"The visit was good, Kevin and Graham were friendly and attentive.

We would have rated the activity as excellent but we felt that we could have spent a little longer in the kayaks." Read more about this whole safari
