Wow, this is so fun! - Had a great time, airconditioned van, super knowledgeable guide (Frank), and what a blast flying down the dunes on a sandboard! Highly recommend this tour, there is a little cafe and toilets nearby as well. Highly recommend this one :) Thanks for a great time, Frank!

These dunes deliver - While this was a short tour it delivered what it promised and was great fun. The driver/guide was friendly, helpful, informative; his vibe added to the enjoyment of the tour. Riding the dunes is great fun!!

Loved our time, photos don't do it justice. - Really enjoyed the time there. Our guide Frank was kind, helpful and the whole experience was a blast. After we did some Sandboarding we went over to the ocean, dipped our toes in and went looking for "pippies." I would recommend you be in a general level of fitness for this, climbing up the sand dunes can tire you out, so just be ready for a bit of climb, but all in all, fantastic time.

Value for money - We went on a very low tourist season when coronavirus was around. Mark made the tour on for us although there were only 2 of us. Tour would normally on with a minimum of 4. Free water bottles on board. Michael had great hospitality and customer service. He was very knowledgeable and chatted a lot not only on the history of tin city but also his background to give the tour a personal touch. Sand dune is such a beautiful and natural scene. Sandboarding is fun and a good workout. The walk up hill on sand is only 20m. I’m afraid of height but I managed the excitement and did a few slides. I must say the first one was a little struggle for me. The hand position in face allows you to control the speed. So don’t hesitate. Go for it. What activity could be that affordable in Australia.

Terrible experience & Cheaters. Stay away from them - I am quite disappointed with their service today. I was suppose to attend 1 PM tour with my family of 4 and due to heavy traffic from Sydney to Port Stephens I was 15 minutes late and I was denied to attend the tour & completely refused for any rescheduling which resulted in the loss of my money. The approach of the person who manages this is very arrogant behavior and ZERO customer-centric way. He is only concerned about the filling his seats in the bus and making the booking full. Dont care about anything else. If you book with this company & are not on time you are going to loose your money & screw up your plan. BEWARE

Very bad experience! - Had a very bad experience on our trip last weekend! So we were booked at 10am but arrived 15mins late and went straight to the red shuttle from Port Stephens 4WD tours. Two old blokes were there and the one I talked to said we could not do the activity anymore because we were late, he said there was nothing he could do and if we want we can book for the next one which was at 12:30pm. We were like "what??" we wasted money for nothing?? And there even weren't any other people there how come the next available time was 12:30pm?? We didn't know at first what the rules were so we felt guilty and just transferred to the other available tour provider we saw (Sand Dunes Safaris, which was great and highly recommended! Shoutout to our driver Max!) which were available right away at 10:30am on which we paid again. After the activity we went to lunch and we revisited the FAQs and saw this text "If you are late or early, it's not an issue as our 4WDs rotate every 10-15 minutes (Sandboarding Adventure)”. We altogether were so pissed off!!! We wanted a refund so I filed for one which is still pending to this date. Hoping we get it cos that would definitely suck more!
