Our guide was amazing. I learnt so much about the region and history. I’d love to do this again in the dry season to see the changes. Sights were amazing!

Early morning body tour. Lots of birds, salties. Relatively cool weather. Bugs weren't bad. Beautiful scenery. Our guide, Dennis, was knowledgeable and funny!
