Everything worked out well, unfortunately saw no pelicans and dolphins only from a distance
Hi Anja! Thank you for your review! We hope that the pelicans will be flying in abundance when you join us in the future! :)
Amazing overall experience. Friendly and welcoming. The overall experience was amazing. Thank you so much
Very cool tour! We've all seen: Seals, dolphins and even whales! The crew on the catamaran did everything they could to make sure we saw the whales. Lunch was very sumptuous and fresh, we drank sparkling wine and enjoyed the ride. Very funny and friendly crew members. Thank you very much!!! Would recommend to anyone! ❤️

An amazing and unique experience. It all worked out. Great team, great food and lots of animals seen. The pelicans on board were the absolute highlight! Would do the tour again the next time you visit Walvis Bay immediately.
Hallo! Vielen Dank für Ihre tolle Bewertung! Wir freuen uns sehr, dass Sie eine schöne Zeit bei uns hatten! Wir hoffen, Sie bald wieder bei uns begrüßen zu dürfen! :)
We paid $155 for 2 people on this morning cruise of Walvis Bay. They were a little slow in responding to messages, so we had to figure out where they were located exactly but everything worked out fine as they are about a 10-minute easy walk from the cruise port, almost all the way at the end of the marina area (be alert for people offering to escort you there, it isn't necessary at all - just tell them you catching a harbor cruise that you already have purchased tickets for). Once you check-in (at their beautiful wood and glass building), they tell you to meet further down the pier and to use the restroom in a nearby store. The boat probably held about 50 people and every seat was GREAT with lots of room to spread out and everyone having great views. The boat was modern and nice, and the entire crew was very professional and amazing. They walk around serving you beverages and snacks.....explain all about the areas you are seeing....even bring aboard some locally wild (but daily fed by the tour boats so they know the drill) pelicans and seals. We had AMAZING views of the seal colony, lots of seals in the water, pods of dolphins, and a humpback whale - honestly, this was the most active wildlife we have ever encountered on a wildlife sightseeing cruise. The lunch is great and includes local oysters, champagne, and other very tasty snacks. The ride took the full 3 hours and at the end their was a voluntary gratuity basket that you could contribute to for the crew (no pressure at all). A really great experience that we highly recommend!!
Hello! Thank you so much for your lovely and descriptive review! We appreciate your patience regarding our response time! We are so glad that you had a terrific time on our cruise, and we hope to welcome you back one day! :)
We booked this independently whilst on a cruise to South Africa from Gran Canaria… the contact from this company was excellent- Sun Sail reached out several days prior to arrival gave location details and met us off the Quay… lots of seals and Pelicans and a couple of Dolphins.. an excellent on board snacks of oysters, fizz and samosa /sandwich’s -a vegetarian meal was on offer too. On our trip the weather was a bit overcast but blankets available, it an open catermaran so on a sunny day (normal weather) plenty of sun lotion and hat required .
We’re so grateful for your fantastic review! It truly means a lot to us and reflects our commitment to providing the best experiences. We hope to see you again soon! :)
Absolutely amazing the crew were so friendly it was cold and drizzled with rain they gave us blankets and old brown sherry to warm us up and friendly and accommodating highly recommend and will definitely go back!!! Fresh oysters and bubbly!!!
Hi Johan! Thank you for your lovely review! We're really happy to hear you enjoyed your trip with us, even with the chilly weather. We can’t wait to welcome you back again soon!
Beautiful catamaran tour with direct pick up at the cruise terminal. Delicious fresh oysters and other snacks accompanied by sparkling wine and other drinks.
We were on the water for 4 hours and were treated with excellent snacks and drinks. We saw a whale, countless seals and dolphins. The staff were exceedingly friendly and efficient. Truly a five star experience.
The Marine Dolphin Seal Cruise with Sun Sail was an absolute highlight of our holiday! From the first minute we felt completely comfortable – the team on board was not only friendly and professional, but also took care of all guests with genuine warmth. We would like to emphasize particularly positively that even our vegetarian wishes were met without problems and with great care – this is unfortunately not a matter of course with excursions of this kind. The food was delicious and lovingly prepared. The tour itself was breathtaking: We saw dolphins, experienced sea lions up close and enjoyed the fantastic scenery from the water. The crew talked a lot about wildlife and you could tell how much they cared about the respectful treatment of nature and animals. Thanks to the whole team – we would book this tour again at any time and can recommend Sun Sail without restriction!
