Last day of holiday andneeded to get back to hotel to pack. Because of rain and queues we were over an hour late - that was fine - I would not have wanted them to cut anything short, I think the guides did the best they or anyone could.
BUT, coming home the driver took a wrong turn and that added another hour to our return journey. - bad , surely some one could have noticed the mistake as well as drive being aware of road signs.
