Our tour guide, Bing (I might be spelling that wrong, sorry!) was really good! He was so friendly and helpful. The trip was a good mixture of boat trips, we got to do the cable car (because the tide was low), walking tour, cycling and some kayaking. Really loved this day! Would recommend to others too!”
