Driver guide
Food and drinksOverall day was good, 4x4 experience quiet slow up into the mountains as track was quite bumpy and wouldn’t say we had right tyres to go off road in. Stopped at a couple of places for photo opportunities, and for lunch. Run factory was really good and inspiring. Tour guide was average.
