Great tour with Hans-Dieter - The tour was really great! German-speaking Hans-Dieter is the perfect guide for this tour since he is from Swakopmund and has been living in Namibia for all of his life. He told us a lot about Namibia, the culture, politics, landscape, animals, so we got a deep understanding. He drove us to the amazing moon landscape as well as to the Welwitschia plants. We can totally recommend the tour!

When visiting Namibia, this is something you absolutely must do! - We had an amazing tour and created unforgettable memories. Our experienced guide, Hans, was a fantastic host. We enjoyed a private tour with him and experienced the Namibian desert to the fullest. The highlight was the lovingly prepared picnic lunch under a large rock.

Namib Full-day Desert Tour from Swakopmund. - Hans-Dieter is an excellent tour guide who described the tour in detail and was very knowledgeable in explaining the plants, animal life and terrain. His knowledge made the experience even more enjoyable. A highlight was having lunch in the shade of the overhang of an enormous bolder—a big thank you to Hans-Dieter's wife for the delicious lunch provided. We unreservedly recommend this tour and Hans-Dieter to future visitors to Namibia, particularly to Swakopmund.
