Amazing 🤩 - Really outstanding experience. To be able to ride on the dunes is something else. I really want to express my gratitude for the patience and excellent experience I had on this activity. It truly was special and amazing.

A tour combining ride and thrills! - A tour varying thrills in the dunes, walk in the city and explanations about the formation of the Namib desert. Our guide adapted to our level and allowed us to live this experience with goodwill.

Exciting - Amazing experience, not to difficult although you might be not that young anymore. Our guide Hanjo explained a lot about plants and animals and found two chamaelons for us.

Great bike tour - We had a great time with Gibson and one other couple from Germany. We had booked regular bikes, but in order to really enjoy and experience this trip you need an E bike. I am only 5 ft tall so I need to use a children’s smaller regular bike. I had fun, but couldn’t do the more extreme biking. We went on the 2:30 tour, very hot. We also wore sandals, you are in the sand! Water was provided:) We had a great time exploring the desert on fat bikes!

Great desert expirience - higly reccomend - A beautiful morning in the dunes. We were blessed by sunshine. The ride was not too challenging and did give a few nice downhills. We also had ample time to see wildlife in the dunes. One harmless snake and stories about the history as well as the geology of the area

An experience to remember - While trying to book online I found the dates I wanted booked out by our cruise group. I contacted the company directly and they were able to fit us in for our own tour later in the day. They were very responsive over WhatsApp which made booking a breeze. Our bikes, helmets, and instructions were sorted very fast. Our guide was Costa, he was so casual and friendly, and shared an absolute wealth of knowledge. We knew nothing of the area and he really explained it well. The fat biking over the dunes was just amazing. The scenery is second to none and totally worth the trip. Costa took some amazing photos for us, making some great family photos to remember our trip to Namibia. We opted for the e-bikes, but our son had a regular one......go the e-bikes!! Costa must be super fit to hardly break a sweat riding those hills. We had a wonderful experience from start to finish, and recommend anyone to give it a go.

Nice workout in the morning😉 - Great tour through the dunes different times! I was traveling alone with my son. It is great fun to climb the dunes and ride down again. Quite a bit exhausting, but nice! We cycled on the beach back to Swakopmund. We enjoyed it a lot.

Brilliant tour of dunes, Swakopmund Rivere and the Srand - Time flew by, we enjoyed the magnificent view in the dunes. The entire ride and especially the Down Hill rides were great. We were two participants and the choice of e-bikes made it less strenuous.
