Amazing time with a one of a kind guide! - We had the most amazing time. I honestly believe that our tour guide, Campbell, was part of what made this experience so special! He went above and beyond for us and was extremely knowledgeable of all the areas we went through. He was interested in the parts we wanted to see and highlighted things he picked up on that we were looking for. There was not a question he wasn't able to answer for us. We saw towering mountains, cairns, castles, and the steam from the steam engine at the viaduct was awesome! The experience in general was incredible. We will absolutely use this tour company (and hopefully have Campbell again) in the future! This is a must go adventure!
