Guide was very accompanying and knowledgeable about the forest and route. - Chris Herselman


One of the best tours we have ever done. The tour is family friendly and our guide was sooo knowledgeable. I absolutely enjoyed riding the Segway and it was my first time riding. - Ntsoaki Nqai


Our tour guide Kay made this an experience of a lifetime. We would highly recommend anyone doing this. He was a 10/10 guide with 5 star service. Thank you to him!!!! - Jacqui Peacock


The Segway experience was awesome, easy to handle and such a nice way to go see the forest. The guide was friendly, interesting and helpful, through water and rocks, always looking back to make sure we were okay. If I could suggest that maybe showing other interesting things such as some of the plants, moss and fungi that grows amongst the trees. We had a great time. Kevin and Cherryll - Cherryll Riddin
