Very laid back and easy with two days in most places and a good quantity of free time. Fantastic tour director who kept her flock in control. Driver was phenomenal and a pleasure to talk to. As always there is too much to see and remember so picture taking is essential.
Great tour and great leader. Challenging underfoot conditions - rocky in places - but worth it. The accommodation and food at Gey Village House was poor but otherwise all the other accommodation and food was fine. Excellent boat trip at the end of the tour to round off a memorable holiday.
This tour was a wonderful experience. A nice size at 28 happy people, luxurious coach, amazing driver & guide extraordinaire . Accommodations were very good & often pleasantly out of the ordinary. The optional activities are worth the extra expense. Highly recommend this tour.
