Temba Travel Swakopmund Municipal Rest Camp

Tommy's Living Desert Tours in Sakopmund is an adventure not to be missed. I went on a tour this morning and discovered the magnificent beauty of the desert. The very knowledgeable guide operates as if he can see under the sand. It sometimes looks as if he just puts his hand in the sand and finds a living creature. We saw a variety of geckos, other reptiles such as a desert chameleon, and even a sidewinder or desert viper. Don’t touch any of these if you don’t know what to do. Driving in the dunes was also a great adventure.
