“This trip was excellent for the value. The guide gave a good balance of time at each location, neither too long nor too short.

With the windows open, it was reasonably comfortable, though. Overall, this offers good value for money. Don’t expect a lot for the price, but that was exactly what we were looking for – mainly transport with a little guidance. We got to try some tea and nutty oil, visit multiple locations, and viewpoints. We didn’t bother…”
