“It is a nice tour. The only concern I have is I came here after the cyclone, the few attractions close.

Instead simply show you the close side and finish the tour early”

“Really nice driver but we didn’t get any explanation on any of the sites visited. This may have been due to his limited English and/or lack of knowledge or training. The sites visited combined to give a good overview of the highlights of the area. Our favourites were the 7 coloured earth and Chamarel waterfall. Lunch was delicious and filling. We would recommend adding in ziplines or an additional adventure activity to the day as a highlight on top of the viewpoints.”
