Professional, considerate, compassionate.
Thanks for your recommendation! You have summed up Ben very succinctly. Thanks!
Ben knew so much about about the rainforest, the plants and furnace. The tour was will paced and great for all abilities. Featherdale is a great park, I could have spent more time there. The hike was a beautiful challenge. Lunch in Leura was busy but still nice. Hitting all the lookout pm the way out was a nice touch
