It was a wonderful experience. Mark was a wonderful guide and had immense knowledge of the entire circuit. Time allotted to each place, breaks in-between, comfort inside the vehicle - each and everything was wonderfully planned.

I have booked the tour only day in as advance. I was changed and emailed ticket. I made my way to the allocated pick up point as instructed. (£15 taxi charge). After waiting 30min I texted and called the tour operator and was informed that they will not pick me up as I have booked the trip too late. I was able to book a tour on the website but company was not able to deliver. I spent further £15 to get back to the hotel I stayed. No refund offered by the company.
