The driver, Chris, and tour guide, Vernon, were exceptional. They were very considerate of everyone's needs and were extremely knowledgeable.

Very Disappointing - I don’t even know where to beginning, the tour started late and we were treated as if we were children on a school trip. Everything took forever to get done. We could barely hear our guide throughout the tour and he would stand and talk in the sun. The lunch break we had made it worst everywhere needed a reservation to eat and was expensive. Last but not least the boat tour was the exact information as the bus tour. What a waste of money and time.
