    Picked up on time. We were the only passengers, so pretty much a private tour. Nachos was great and allowed us to set our own pace. Unfortunately a cold, wet day in Alice, but it added to the drama. Only thing that needed improving is the bus. A bit dated and hard on the back.

  • Amazing experience
