Peter made it clear from the beginning that we would be learning a lot and having a great time - and we definitely did both. He was an excellent guide, the places we visited were amazing, and we were grateful for the thorough guidance on navigating various landscapes. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and Peter is a great guy as well.

I have mixed feelings about this beach. It's a great spot to bring kids and take sunset photos, but we ended up getting our 4x4 stuck for hours (thankfully during low tide). Overall, it's a wonderful place, just had a rough experience.
