A very memorable trip. We had comfort and great, warm commentary. Maintaining our comfort was made a priority by the company despite the changeable weather conditions. We were treated to local, informed and relatable knowledge, as well as some privileged, like a quick and satisfying look at some unadvertised advantages, such as Tasman’s Arch (my photo of which has been popular on my Facebook page).
