This was a great experience and our tour guide was very kind and knowledgeable about the island. The only downside was that the tea plantation was closed. I feel that we should get some reimbursement due to this as it is an integral part of the tour. However, our guide did bring us to more viewpoints which were majestic and beautiful.
