    Went with my parents and they LOVED it. The guide helped my mum get the perfect photo at the Apostles (she’s v proud lol). Only downside was that it was raining on and off, but that made the cliffs look dramatic. Bus was clean and stops were well timed.

    Did this solo and had a blast. The group was friendly and the guide Ann was super energetic. The views are just out of this world. Bit windy but nothing a hoodie can’t fix.
