“Absolutely unreal! All the activities are fun and beautiful but what really made all the difference was our guide - Rhett. he went above and beyond, breaking the ice, building a friendly and inviting culture and listing off countless interesting facts about our surroundings. i don’t know how he stores all that information but it should be investigated.
