Hi Ricky, I had an excellent day thanky ou. Despite a little rain in the morning, it didn’t stop anything.
It was a great day from start to finish, the guide, andreas/Andrew was very good at English and we chatted all day long as he informed me of local areas, the day, plants, birds and animals.
I would thoroughly recommend using your company to anyone that would like to do this trip.
Kind Regards, Lyndsey Dove
