"Ernest seemed a bit disorganised at the start but the day was great. We had a lovely lunch with home made lasagne and pate. It was a fascinating day and to be recommended." Read more about this whole safari

"Sandwich tour - not quite"

Based at Swakopmund Guesthouse on 19 Dec 2010
"We had a great day out, just the 2 of us and guide, but we didn't make it to Sandwich. Tides wait for no man and it was too dangerous. However the experience of driving and getting stuck in the dunes was worth the trip and for my birdwatching husband a final glimpse of a dune lark was the icing on the cake. I thought it was rather small and brown myself.
We booked the private trip so as not to inhibit other tourists in the walking sections as my husband is a wheelchair user. I am not sure that there would have been any other tourists if we had just gone for the normal one but we enjoyed the undivided attention and got to know a lot of things in a very short time."

"Exhilarating trip tp Sandwich Harbour"

Based at Villa Margherita on 21 Sep 2010
"A really action and fun packed day.

Wayne from Turnstone tours really made it exciting - especially driving up and down the dunes and the race back along the beach before the tide came in.

Saw loads of wildlife and Wayne was very knowledgable.

We only expected a snack, but he provided a very good lunch with a table and cloth, proper plates and cutlery. I never expected to be eating home made lasagne and apple crumble (both excellent) in the middle of the dunes!" Read more about this whole safari

"Turnstone Tour to Sandwich Harbour"

Based at Sam's Giardino on 9 Sep 2010
"A great day out. All went very well, and Ernest, our guide, was excellent.

Did not see as many birds as I had hoped, and in fact Sandwhich Harbour was somewhat devoid of life - a few pelicans, and jackals and some other small birds. Perhaps it was the wrong time of year.

The lunch in the sand dunes was great - the best lasagne I have tasted for a long time." Read more about this whole safari

"Land Rover Trip to Sandwich Harbour"

Based at Cornerstone Guesthouse on 9 Sep 2010
"This is an excellent trip, particularly for someone keen on birds, but also for anyone interested in extraordinary scenery and wildlife.
Ernst was a very informative and friendly driver/guide. As well as the birds we saw lots of jackal and learned a lot about the issues facing the area..
Driving over the dunes was quite an experience.
A very nice lunch was provided, although it didn't quite match the sumptuous feast which I'd imagined, having read previous reviews.
Highly recommended." Read more about this whole safari

"Exciting trip over the dunes"

Based at Lagoon Lodge on 15 Aug 2010
"Very good day trip to Sandwich Bay - enjoyed by all. Excellent lunch and weather was warm almost too hot after our previous trip which I found very cold

Our previous trip had been with Bruno but he's too busy doing other things now, but our guide was excellent and informative and answered all of the 100 questions Ben asked him." Read more about this whole safari
