It was a good tour. The tour driver was wonderful and had great information. What I would suggest for improvement is to mention to the people taking the tour to bring jackets and umbrellas. We came off the ship and it was sunny and warm. Once we started driving, the weather was not good and it poured We had on short sleeve shirts and shorts. It was a long day for us not to have jackets or a sweatshirt or an umbrella. I personally thought the day was too long especially since my family of 4 froze all day. When we returned to the ship at the end of the tour it was sunny and warm again.

The tour was well paced and the tour director was excellent. His knowledge and manner enhanced the magnificence of the National Park and the water falls..

We had a great time on our tour. Bob had so much information that he shared with us. He was great. The weather cooperated and was clear when we were at the National Park which I understand is pretty rare. We did wish there had been more time at the sites and maybe less at the shopping stops.
