While we knew the trip around the island would be long (7-8 hours), we did not expect it to be 12 hours. Positives: Awana, our guide, was very good and informative-knew alot about island's history and culture; the 12 passenger van was a good size and nice ride; visits to the volcano, rainforest, the falls, black sand beach/picnic and ocean overlook were wonderful. Not so positive were the bakery stop and coffee stop. Maybe exchange those with a wine/brewery stop at the end. Thank you.
