Thank you for the 5-star review. Uwe
We had a great day out with Victoria viewing the cape fur seals at Cape Cross and then driving to Spitzkoppe to view the arch and rock paintings. We also had a lovely picnic lunch.
It is truly a great place to visit and explore, thank you for joining us for this wonderful adventure glad you enjoyed the lunch. Uwe
We very much enjoyed our Spitzkoppe day tour from Swakopmund. Victor, our guide, was very informative and happily answered all of our questions on the trip. We loved seeing the lichen fields, the beauty of Spitzkoppe itself, and the San pictographs were incredible! And because there was time towards the end of our trip, Victor took us for a drive through the Moon Landscape outside of Swakopmund. We really appreciated this. All in all, it was a fantastic day!
Glad to read that your tour was 10/10, thank you for sharing your positive feedback with us. Spitzkoppe is truly a must-see breathtaking destination. THANK YOU 😊🙌 Uwe
My brother and I were able to book a short notice tour from Swakopmund. The team communicated to confirm very quickly on WhatsApp which was appreciated. Our guide Riaan was excellent. He took us around for the day sharing stories of the Spitzkoppe and of Namibia. He made the experience very interesting and enjoyable.
Spitzkoppe is a magnificent tour indeed, we're happy that you and your brother got to experience that beauty and thank you for choosing Sandwich Harbour Tours. Best regards Uwe
Stephan was awesome - super knowledgable, friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend
Thank you for the high recommendation, glad to hear that your guide was knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. Please come back for more adventure 😁. Thanks Uwe
We had a fantastic day tour with our guide, Riaan. From start to finish, the experience was unforgettable. We visited a wide range of incredible attractions, including the shipwreck, Spitzkoppe, Moon Valley, and the fascinating Welwitschia plains. Riaan was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the entire journey engaging and enjoyable. His insights added real depth to each stop, and the day was well-paced with plenty of opportunities to take in the scenery and take photos. Overall, this was an exceptional tour and highly recommended for anyone wanting to explore the highlights of the region in a single day.
From wide range of incredible attractions, including the shipwreck, Spitzkoppe, Moon Valley, and the fascinating Welwitschia plains - so glad you enjoyed the scenery and adventure at Spitzkoppe. Thanks Uwe
The tour to Spitzkoppe was the highlight of our visit to Swakopmund. The stop at the lichen fields, the largest in the world, was the first special experience. Standing in that vast expanse was awe inspiring! We travelled through beautiful, golden grassland on the way to Spitzkoppe. Spitzkoppe itself is a magnificent, magical place. We had a good number of hours there, lunching in a shady spot, climbing the Arch and visiting the rock paintings. The feel of being on and amongst those ancient rocks with their unique texture and fascinating shapes is incredible. Our quirky guide, Stephanie, was professional and good company. He was accompanied by two colleagues, Andrew, 'the co-pilot' and Volker, 'the silent, but reassuring, presence in the back'. We enjoyed sharing the day with the three of them and had many laughs.
Fun day at Spitzkoppe, sounds really inviting. Glad you loved it . Thank you for letting our guides join on an educational, so we teach each other. Thank you. Uwe
The journey takes a little longer (about 1 1/2 hours) but you see a lot on the way, learn a lot of interesting facts and Spitzkoppe is very, beautiful and you can climb up a little if you want. Thank you Hannes!
Thank you for your kind feedback😊. We wish to see you soon for another adventure. Thanks Uwe
