Amazing day trip
Great deal through book me saved us $$ and we had the most wonderful day. The rail car experience was great and after technical issues (car in front) the team looked after us and we had the best day. They coped well so thanks team.

We had a wonderful time and Shelley the guide was great. I think it may be a good idea to add a tip top freezer or something for when you get to the mamaku cabin and maybe have cash sales or something there. Would make the summer trips even better
