    The great tour guide/instructor. Perfect day. Only negative is when signing up for the trip headiut prints the total fee for Headiut!! They fail toention that there is a $30 fee for the park which is payable before bus may move. Very misleading thinking there are no additional fees!!

    Our guide Matt was absolutely brilliant. He was a date devil but without putting anyone in harms way. He was funny and made the afternoon very memorable. Thank you for the great experience. Just wondering about the photos. Don't seem to have received them. Thank you
