The trip was cancelled due to poor weather.
Received a full refund. They are flexible and accommodating. Employees were friendly and helpful to provide alternative options.

Sadly due to torrential rain on the west coast this booking was cancelled but because of these guys and girls we were warned to keep moving up the coast as the weather was closing in.
So they deserve a 10 for giving the best advise. Cheers people

Great experience, great guide but expensive, $395 per person.
Not suitable for unfit people, look for discount vouchers in magazines, brochures and at i-sites.
