A highly interesting and particularly sympathetic guided tour through the desert, in search of the little creatures. Together, Björn and Immanuel tracked down four of the Little Five and gave us interesting background information about these little creatures. In addition to the information about these desert inhabitants, Björn has provided a lot of general information about Namibia, Namibia's environmental protection, Swakopmund and even a great restaurant recommendation. We would book this experience again at any time and thank you at this point for the great time.
Fascinating tour where you learn a lot about life in the desert. The guides are excellent.
The tour we did with Bjorn and Johnny was excellent. They were well informed about the area and the animals and provided much interesting information as well as being patient and ensuring all participants were involved. Their skills complimented each other. Well worth doing and we both thought it was an excellent tour and well worth the money.
Punctual, friendly, insightful, and providing a wealth of information about the little 5, as well as geology, desert, Atlantic, and the national parks along the coast.
A heartfelt thank you to Immanuel & Ernst for an amazing day out. You showed us the true wonder of nature; absolutely breathtaking and unforgettable. Truly amazing!
Dear Michelle, Thank you for the beautiful 5-star review. I just wonder why such a positive review is rated only 3 stars.
Great experience, learning about animals in the desert, insects, lizards, snakes, birds etc. Guide was fun and knowledgable.
What a fantastic day with Ernst and Bjorn. This is a not-to-be-missed opportunity to see what lives in the sand in the dunes. Bjorn is incredibly knowledgable and Ernst tracking abilities are legendary.
Great tour guide, friendly, engaging and informative. Very considerate of tourists. Drinks provided. Take sunscreen and a hat.
We loved this tour, finding all this creatures in the middle of nothing but sand, was magical. At the end of the tour, they drove through the dunes, which was a wonderful experience.
A unique experience. The guide was experienced in the little creatures and the dunes. The scenery was breathtaking and the 4x4 vehicle was suited for the tour
