Thomas_G, September 2026
This was an amazing adventure. We took a taxi from town to get there on time and a bus back. That worked very well and gave us time to relax at a small restaurant between kayaking and the bus. Only thing to know is there are no bathrooms until a restaurant opens! Other than that, our guide was fabulous and the tour was incredible.
