"It was easy to purchase. It’s something you do not need a tour guide for so you can walk along at your own pace and take pictures. It was breathtaking. It was a fantastic experience that I suggest everyone to do at least once in their lifetime." Lisa - United States, July 2024 >> See more reviews...
