5.00Value for money trip. Yes zoo and cable cars were more. Yes it tried to cater for all. But like all good tours it went as fast as all 28 people could cope. So if you want a tour where you rush and hike long distances this maybe is not for you. But it gives you a good taste of the area in one day and maybe you mushroom from it to what meets or personal needs. Les was a Fun Guide and I would very much recommend this for all who need a good tour and a taste for what you can do, hope people feel as blessed as my wife and I do having spent a good day on this tour.
Expect to pay for additional entrance fees

5.00This tour was fabulous! Our guide, Les was entertaining as well as a font of knowledge. He was tolerant of four guests who were chronically tardy. The things I saw and heard will give me joy when remembering them. Worth every cent!
All the way from Canada
