4.00Excellent tour, with guide Hayley and driver/guide Con, both extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommended, apart perhaps from the 4.30 start of the tour, making the previous night dinner alcohol free! Great tour, great landscape, tons of information and great stories. Hayley very entertaining!
Too rushed to enjoy

2.00Far too rushed to enjoy the hike. Kept getting prodded like cattle and urged to not take photos. Tour guide sped up ahead and didn't even wait for group to gather before starting to talk. I'd recommend finding a tour that gives you at least 4 hours, or visiting on your own. We spent 3 hours for the hike, and 2 hours for breakfast/lunch. Additionally, little information was given on the tour itself. Guides just herded us through the rim walk.

4.00Amazing landscapes and really cool hike! However, there were far too many people that booked this tour. Some parts of the hike were challenging and the whole group was constantly delayed waiting for others, something that would be understandable if it wasn’t for the high price of the excursion. Also being such a big group means that you loose the peace of hiking in the nature and many of your pictures will be full of people in the background. Anyway, if you can’t rent a car it’s still worth it because the place is incredible and the guides give lots of comments and explanations!
Worth it
