Lots of sites to visit, which is great. Limited animal sighting opportunities. Recommend a separate tour to see animals.

We had a fantastic time on this trip, thanks to our amazing tour guide, James. He was very knowledgeable about all the places we visited and kept us entertained with his great sense of humor, which made the entire journey relaxed and enjoyable. The tour started around 6:30 AM, depending on our pickup location, and we returned to the CBD around 7 PM. It was a long day, but James remained energetic and enthusiastic throughout, which we truly appreciated. The weather was perfect on the day of our trip, and we were lucky enough to see multiple rainbows along the way — a truly unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime experience. Highly recommended!
