We have done this guide twice and are going for a third this year. We took my husband’s cousin and his wife the first year and took my in laws last year. We always choose the full day with meal included . We loved it and I can’t say I would change anything. We were able to go up the trails the first yr but the second time around with my in laws that was not available because those trails were closed and we still enjoyed it and they did too.

Really fun excursion, but special shoutout on going the extra mile to accommodate us. Our tour was at 8:30am, we had some difficulties getting there (our fault), we were able to contact the tour operator on the phone at 8:50am and explained our problem, we assumed we would have to find something else to do that day. They said no problem, we will come pick you up and make it happen. Certainly did not expect that and super appreciative that they did that to accommodate us.
