Last week's 6 day tour was a memory for life. Very much because our guide and driver, Geoff. You could really feel his passion for traveling and guiding this type of tour. He made many stops along the way and had always something interesting to tell. Everything was well organized and we newer had any delays. Not from Geoff, nor from the group members. Our guide did not spare any effort to make us feel comfortable and well informed.
In the beginning I was a bit skeptical to the bus. A midsized Mitsubishi that had been in service for a while. But after days trawling I could se the benefits. It was very robust and functional for a trip like this. Small enough to get access to remote beaches etc. Effective air-conditioning with adjustable outlets for every seat, and we could hear Geoffs sharing all his stories loud and clear through the speaker system.
In the evenings we all joined to prepare dinner, and afterwards do the dishes. For us, who where the oldest on the tour (all retired) it gave nice opportunities to chat with the other guests on the tour. Most of them in their twenties. We made new friends.
Overall the tour was better than expected. And I give Geoff 10/10.
More of what we saw and did you can read about in the day-by-day tour program.
