The half day tour was an interesting way to see the major sights around Walvis Bay. We met at 1200 in the designated location and our guide was there to meet us. Timing with the tides is very important so pickup times are not super flexible. We drove out along the beach to Sandwich Harbor, drove in the dunes (very fun), and then had the opportunity to explore the dunes on foot while our guide prepared lunch. We had a light lunch and drinks on the beach, and he shared some history of the area with us. Following lunch we drove back towards the city and out onto Pelican Point to see the Seal Colony. It was nice of our guide to show us since this is a famous attraction, but if you have limited time or energy I recommend skipping this part. It's a lot of driving! On our way back to the drop off point we stopped by the salt flats to see the colorful pools. It was a nice day.
