“The waterfall is spectacular, but the pathway up to the waterfall is bit rough and maybe dangerous, especially on rainy day. The local goverment should consider improving the pathway. The farm visit is very nice. Bus is new and comfortable, wifi is good. Driver is skillful. Tour guide is humorous and gives clear description. The final drop at the town centre is also good for those who wish to take a look at the small town. It is just a 15-minute walk to the cruise port.”

At most stops the guide pointed in a direction and said “go where the people are going”. The pick up timing was improperly communicated, the…”

The comfortable vehicle meant the tour was well worth the price tag. Personally we felt we could have done without the dairy farm and had more time in the national park, but i can see that the delicious ice cream would be a major draw for younger families. We had an unforgettable day on this tour.”
