Enjoyed seeing the flamingos. The dune ride was quite an experience. The view from on top of the dunes was beautiful. John was a very good guide.

It was fantastic. Our guide John was an expert in driving. The views are breathtaking. It is really worth it.
Fue genial, una experiencia increíble. Nuestro guía John era un experto piloto que nos llevó por las dunas y el mar. No podéis estar en la zona y no ir

My husband and I had the pleasure of accompanying John, the owner of Pelgrim Tours, on a sandwich harbour tour (that we had booked as a combo tour with kayaking at Pelican Point - highly recommended). John was a very enjoyable guide and an absolutely fearless driver. I'd read that you cannot access sandwich harbour at high tide, and it was high tide, but John was not fazed, and instead was able to carefully navigate our vehicle along the coast as the waves came in. He was a very careful and competent driver and we felt confident in his abilities. We also really enjoyed the incredible scenery, and John was always eager to share interesting facts about the area and scenery, and even dug up a Palamato gecko for us to see. The driving up and down the dunes was also a highlight and not for the faint of heart, though I think John may have taken it a little easy on the dunes because I am pregnant. But we had a great time overall and can highly recommend both Pelgrim as well as Sandwich Harbour.
