5.00Although the weather didn’t cooperate, Colin our driver found alternatives and we were able to enjoy a wonderful view from Mt Nelson. Very informative tour. Cascades female factory is A MUST. Our history should never be forgotten. Found the download commentary easy and interesting. Thanks again to our driver Colin who gave some personal history and perspective on the Women’s lives. Great morning tour.

5.00The trip to Mt Wellington may be delayed even cancelled as it closes due to ice roads & the weather can be unpredictable. We had a beautiful Guide who made up for it taking us to other great lookouts. Cascade Female Factory- I would recommend a guided tour!! I had the app to listen during my visit. I still missed so much with many questions unanswered.

3.00The driver was very knowledgeable.....but I did not get a guided tour of the Cascade Female Factory and thought I would. I only had to time to quickly walk around it by myself. The title of the tour is misleading. The Mt Wellington part was wonderful.
Will be back!

4.00Not a good luck day as Mt. Wellington was closed due to weather (snow). But tour guide Alan walked us along the Spring and told us interesting history and story of Mt Wellington. The Female Factory was worth a visit to know the dark history of the females in the past.
