Exhilarating driving, spectacular views - not to be missed!

We (two couples is separate cars) had an awesome morning of desert creatures, interesting facts, dune driving and incredible views. We learnt plenty about dune driving - it is somewhat harder but way more fun doing it yourself! Thanks for all the assistance when we got stuck or struggled, and none of us will ever forget cresting and driving down that last dune! We would all recommend it to anyone!

Just sublime

Absolutely amazing, JP was not in a rush, showed us wildlife, gave us a lot of time climping the dunes and made sure that we came also good back home while ma manovering perfectly through the sand dunes. 💯! Cannot get any better.

Adventure, historical, eco, animal (small and big) all in one tour!

Such a good experience, excellent guiding with so much information. The gecko exploration at the start of the tour was so cool. Thrilling, safe experience with the self-drive. JP is a beast!

Awesome Experience!

Had a fantastic experience with Martin as our guide on a self drive tag along tour yesterday. This was something that has been on my bucket list for many years, and the trip down to Sandwich harbour via the beach and then back across the dunes was stunning! Martin was a great guide with a good sense of humour and great knowledge of the area and the wildlife. Nothing felt rushed and he just went with the flow of our 4 person, 2 vehicle group. The lunch provided was also delicious and they also catered for the 2 vegans in our group. I’d highly recommend this trip to any avid 4wders. It’s an experience of a life time.

Operator response

Hi Steve! Thanks so much for booking my tour, I am super happy that you enjoyed the tour, and I will pass the comments to Martin. Thanks again!

Great experience with safe driving

I did this tour for the second time after doing it 3 years ago with my 4x4. JP was not available but his colleague was and it was a great safe adventure : driving in the dunes and on the beach. I recommend warmly red Dune Safaris
