1.00The excursion was cancelled in advance of arrival . Offered the following day , acepted then not available ! Then offered an up grade and refund of bbq , which we accepted . On arrival told that we could have been on the bbq one . Total shambles of a company !
Advance bookings can be cancelled by guide at any time

1.00I would like to rate this experience but it was cancelled 4 days out due to “operational considerations”. What operational considerations are there on a bar-b-que? Did you run short of charcoal? Ridiculous. It ran the day before and after but that conflicted with other plans. Just be aware a booking eight months in advance means nothing.
Good value for money and a living memory

5.00Great sunset, guide, barbecue and star talk . It was good that we were a small party of us too. Lucky too as the following evening it rained and the trip was called off
