Itinerario
Después de un breve descanso en la laguna de Walvis Bay para ver masas de flamencos, el viaje inicialmente nos lleva al delta del río Kuiseb, un lecho seco donde todavía se pueden ver algunas gacelas. Como esta área forma parte de nuestra Concesión del Delta de Kuiseb, somos el único operador de actividad autorizado para acceder a esta área. Si el clima y las mareas lo permiten, conduciremos directamente hasta la laguna de Sandwich Harbour a lo largo de la playa, uno de los humedales más ricos y únicos de África meridional y uno de los cinco sitios RAMSAR (sitio Ramsar núm. 743) en Namibia.
Sandwich Harbour cuenta con dos humedales distintos y marismas asociadas. Uno se alimenta de acuíferos y sustenta la típica vegetación emergente, pero está desapareciendo lentamente debido a causas naturales. El segundo, bajo la influencia de las mareas, consiste en marismas y barras de tejas elevadas. Enclavado entre el mar y las dunas de Namib, es uno de los humedales costeros más importantes de Namibia, y alberga ocho especies en peligro de extinción entre la gran cantidad de aves zancudas. Dentro del sitio existen varios sitios arqueológicos que datan de hace 1,000 años. Las actividades humanas han incluido la pesca, la recolección de guano y la caza. Si nuestros vehículos no pueden conducir a lo largo de la playa para llegar al puerto de Sandwich debido a la marea alta, tendrá la oportunidad de ver el área de la laguna desde uno de nuestros hermosos miradores y tendrá tiempo para caminar y explorar. Tenemos mucho tiempo para detenernos en el camino para fotografiar. • Almuerzo: Selección de nuestras famosas ostras frescas de Namibia y bocadillos con vino espumoso, cervezas y bebidas frías.

Highly recommend this tour. Sandwich Harbour 4x4 provides a wonderful, exhilarating tour of the dunes and Sandwich Harbour in the Dorob National Park. Our guide Elmar was dry engaging with his job and was also excellent in ensuring we not only had a thrilling ride through the dunes and saw many springbok and oryx along the way. He was great at finding stunning views and locations away from the other tours. One of the highlights is the stop for drinks and refreshments. The spread Sandwich Harbour 4x4 provided was incredible - sparkling wine, beer, fresh Namibian oysters, beef kebabs, chicken schnitzel, fish and other bites plus three small desserts including a local Namibian treat. All in all, a fun afternoon that I would like to do again next I visit Namibia!
Simply sensational. Without clouds it is indescribable, but more beautiful than the Maranhenses Lençóis. Only it is far from Swakpmond and is expensive.
Excellent scenery and food, and amazing guide, his knowledge was amazing and very humorous. He could also drive a dune very well!
It was amazing and Elmar was a superb host. We were treated so well and he went out of his way to seek out the wildlife and give us a really good trip. The meal they prepared was delicious. Best experience for a long time!
This trip was just absolutely fantastic. Our guide Marshal was so knowledgeable about his country and the wildlife. We saw Gecko up close, Cormorants, Seals, and Jackals. The Namib Desert 4x4 trip was fabulous and the views from the top of high dunes breathtaking. Lunch was so good too in the most beautiful setting on the beach you can imagine. Can you tell I enjoyed it !
This was a great experience getting to see the beautiful landscapes and thrilling driving along the beach and over the dunes. Our guide was very knowledgeable and experienced. The quality of the lunch provided was superb especially the local oysters. We got to see quite a bit of wildlife including the flamingos, a jackal and springbok. As there were just 3 of us we got our own 4x4 and it felt a lot more customised than the big groups we saw in other convoys also visiting the area. Please note: we passed a number of dead and dying seals along the way which might be upsetting to some.
Sam was one of the best and most fun loving guides I have had the pleasure of driving with. He gave ample time for us to take photos, made jokes, was knowledgable about the animals, dunes, sea, tide and swells. We were spoilt beyond measure. He is a super fantastic guide and his driving capabilities kept me smiling the whole way- my cheeks are still sensitive. If you appreciate nature and want to experience the dunes, I recommend going with Sandwich Harbour 4x4
We had a great day with Elmar - such a kind and experienced guide, and the views of the dunes next to the water was amazing. I'm so glad that we did this excursion as a tour, because I would not have felt comfortable driving on the dunes and in the sand. A bit expensive, but this tour was definitely worth it! We also had a lovely lunch too.
Sandwich and Pelican Point should have been the best moments of our stay on the Namib coast. First of all, the guide who was leading the group, I think her name was Leonne, was very, very rude to another guide, the white-haired senior guide. Then we went to Sandwich. Our guide was great, but the head of the guides got stuck. Very unprofessional. Then we went to the Pelican Peninsula. One of the other guides, Hansen, ended up in a river, with the car starting to float in the water. It's very dangerous! The members of our group could have drowned! They got wet in the car! That's not acceptable. The head of the guides panicked and did not know how to handle the situation. The elderly driver pulled out the car and saved the lives of our friends, and even the car itself. This company does not have the right guides to treat their guests well and safely. I'm not going to contact this company again. /GOOGLE TRANSLATION: Sandwich and Pelican Point should have been the highlights of our stay on the Namib Coast.

What a great afternoon! The dunes of Sandwich Harbour are amazing and driving across them in a 4x4 is one of the most spectacular ways to experience them. We booked directly with Nico Robberts, on a personal recommendation, and he was an absolutely brilliant guide and great fun. The luxurious desert picnic Nico laid on was a highlight!
