A superb walk, very busy at times.
Stunning scenery and geology, information available is accurate but seems many people just don't understand 'Alpine Mountain Conditions', casualty rate??

A very good walk, quite busy at times, lovely views of the bays, but most time in dense forest.
Taking good care on narrow, often rough footing. One very wrong sign board, very confusing.

3.0/5
Latest 'Platinum Beach', 17000 km on the clock, van is fine, drives well, comfortable.
But poor servicing before hire (too fast/unskilled labour?); grey waste blocked/tank full; sat nav cable faulty & spare broken; DVD irrelevant to model; roadside assistance excellent but should not be necessary so often - 5 times!
Post holiday response from Maui re my subsequent detailed report very swift and positive.

Just made 10am tour, only 4 persons = very good.
Driver/guide Kevin excellent, clear, knowledgable commentary. Gets you to sites that only need 10-15 minutes. Better than the Hopper Bus, well recommend.
