we had a great time with our very nice, friendly and professional tour guide. The stair climbing was for us a little older heavy, but durable.

The road was a little bumpy but well...

The road was a little bumpy but well worth seeing the Rio On Pools and Big River Falls. We were fortunate that we had a private tour but area is out a bit and not a lot of vans. Well worth the cost to do this.

Prima

Wandeling naar een grot. Daarna doorgereden naar een kamp waar we heerlijk geluncht hebben. Daarna door naar een zwemstop bij een waterval. Was erg mooi. Wel waren wij met zijn 2en en hadden we hierdoor privé tour. Tourgide was leuke vent die zich aanpaste aan onze wensen. Vind prijs kwaliteit verhouding wel vrij fors voor wat je terug krijgt.
