Booked a trip with Les for a river cruise and sand sledding. Les was really knowledgeable and friendly and gave us the choice of dry and/or wet sand sledding after a beautiful cruise down the river. We opted for dry and had a fantastic time sledding down the dunes on his specially crafted sleds.

We all had a wonderful morning and would thoroughly recommend. Look forward to returning on our next visit to PE!

We changed for an afternoon the cruise ship with the nice small excursion scooter of Les and Maggie. Les as a river captain has not only told us a lot about the rather lonely, beatiful area but also climbed with us up the dunes up to twelve stories high. beautiful weather and a great view, a super experience. Absolutely recommendable. And if you call in advance you get a cold beer and a cheese bite. Steffen

Our evening sunset River cruise was part of our full day tour of Addo National Park with Alan Tours. Captain Les provided us with lots of laughs along with informative knowledge about the local area and the wildlife. The climb to the top of the dunes to see the sunset was the highlight of the evening!!! A great evening after a fantastic day!

Even though we booked it very last minute, we had the opportunity to go sand sledding. Les and his wife are wonderful people and made sure we had the time of our lives! Everything was well organised and it is a very fun and safe activity. Also the cruise to the dunes itself is wonderful!

I recommand this activity to everyone!

We have spent a very nice morning with Les guiding us on the river, showing us plenty bird species and then sliding on the sand dunes with our kids (10-6-4 years old).
Les is making his own sand boards
And is very knowledgeable of the river environment.
Nice family adventure !!

After a beautiful cruise up the river we arrived to the untouched dunes down the estuary. The vies are magnificent and the sledding experience is such a fun activity to both kids and adults. Thank you Les for a beautiful day and a special experience!

Les is the owner/operator of the river ferry and sand sledding. The new design boards handled very well, and the part where you end the river is awesome. I am 59 years old but the safety precautions and training was good enough so that I had a great experience.

I have embarked in the Sand Sledding Cruise with my wife and 3 kids and had a wonderful time.
Captain was extremely nice and attentive, made us feel really welcome and comfortable, as well as explaining us everything and sharing with us the story.
Sand Sledding is really fun and safe. They have designed their own exclusive and handmade boards for assuring the best possible ride for customers.
Definitely recommend and would love to repeat...who know when we return to SA ;)
Thanks for the awesome experience
