Tom was an excellent driver and got as quickly to each area safely and always gave clear directions on where to meet… the information about each area was given before we got to the area so you could tour independently, but he was also readily available if questions..”

We had extra stops at the chocolate shop/ ice creamery and another viewpoint too, which were great bonuses. Would highly recommend - just make sure you sit on the right side of the bus to get the best coastal views as you drive!”
