YOUR JOURNEY
Meet us at your designated Pickup Location – your memorable tour is about to begin!
We believe that the journey is half the fun – and as such we like to practice what we preach.
Whilst we make our way down onto the Peninsula, and into our first stop, we will do the following:
- You will become acquainted with your friendly driver – this will be the person responsible for ensuring your day goes to plan, that you are well looked after, and that you get home safely at the end of the day…we suggest you be nice to them 😉
- You will get a rundown of the day –Â don’t worry, we will remind you of the important things that you need to remember as the day goes on.
- You will be met with some amazing views and beautiful landscapes as the scenery changes before your very eyes
- You will have time to relax into the day – simply sit back and relax, one of the best things about today is that you don’t have to worry about a thing…let us do that for you. Chances are you’ll also hear some hilarious jokes (or absolutely horrendous… depending on your driver); sing along to some great tunes; and kick off the good times before we even arrive at our first stop.
