We learned so much on this experience! Chris, our guide, was absolutely amazing! The cool, interesting tidbits we picked up were just as amazing as the views!

NEVER BOOK
Himanshu_K, Jan 2024
Never book this tour. Whatever is written, tour operator does not stop on those points. If you ask for refund, they just escape My sincere request to everyone to never book this tour
Response from Host, Jan 2024
I'm a bit confused about this review. I see you requested a refund a few hours before it started saying you had canceled your trip. We are not able to refund cancellations within 24 hours but we certainly could have rescheduled you. Please contact us if there's been a misunderstanding! Thanks, Dara
Well run, interesting and overall exciting tour

Very friendly tour guide, gave lots of info about the different spots. Bus was nice but a bit noisy. Without mic, guide was sometimes hard to understand. But in general a very good recommendable tour.
