친절한 기사님께서 편안하게 안전 운전해주어 예쁜 마을에 잘 다녀왔습니다
Thanks for the review. Great to hear you enjoyed your drive to Akaroa with our driver.
가이드 겸 운전기사님이 너무 친절하셨고, 아카로아 왕복 셔틀과 중간 지점 힐탑에서 잠시 정차해 즐긴 풍경도 너무 멋졌습니다. 운전할 필요 없이 기사님이 안전하게 드라이빙해주시니 가는길 오는길 내내 편하게 휴식취할 수 있었습니다. 아카로아에서의 충분한 자유 시간이 있으니 이용하시는 분들은 다른 투어를 신청해 즐기시는것도 좋은 방법일듯해요! 대략 오전 10시경 도착해 3시 40분정도까지 모이라고 했으니 돌고래투어나 크루즈투어도 따로 신청해서 했어도 좋았을거같아요:)
Thanks for your review. We are pleased you enjoyed your day in Akaroa and our driver and guide were friendly. there are certainly many stunning views along the drive.
