Magnificent. The scenes are truly uniquely beautiful and our guide was so kind, helpful and professional. Her name is Karen and we couldn't recommend her enough. She went above and beyond what we expected from guides on tours over the years and we hope the agency appreciates how fortunate they are to have someone like her working for them. She patiently adjusted the schedule to meet our needs and requests always with a smile, what more could someone want on a special trip tour. Fantastic tour overall, really impressed.

This was an amazing tour. Fully recommended for everyone looking for a private tour. Our guide Chris was great in taking us to all the locations in and around the mountain. He had great knowledge and details about the different locations and attractions. He also gave us a lovely view in to the history and culture of the place, with his vast knowledge about the rare local plants, the animals and the mythical folklore about the mountain and the cave. Loved it!
