Booked this after discussing the route with my cousins. The longer travel days were balanced with lighter sightseeing where possible. Pickup was on time and we did not have to keep calling for the vehicle. The weather stayed pleasant and we spent more time outdoors than expected. One small suggestion: confirm hotel and pickup details a little earlier.
I chose this itinerary because my husband and parents were joining and I did not want an overpacked schedule. The driving felt safe and there was no unnecessary speeding. We came back happy with the trip.

After a long gap, we finally managed a school-holiday trip with my father and younger brother. The itinerary worked better than trying to arrange local transport on our own. Nothing major went wrong, though a little more proactive communication would improve the service.
We planned this as a first visit to this circuit, and I was travelling with my brother and his family. My mother walks slowly, and nobody made us feel hurried. One small suggestion: give slightly clearer information when traffic or weather changes the plan.
