Our guide Ray, was so kind from the very start of our tour. He tailored the day to fit our wants and answered all of our questions. When the ticket services were down at Boulders Beach, Ray quickly solved the problem and had us through the gates and to the penguins. When we were trying to address an issue that came up with our credit card (not with this company, but with the taxi company from the airport), Ray was quick to step in and offer solutions and even checked up on us several times (a week later, and even a month later) to make sure we had it resolved and had made it home safely. He was extremely knowledgeable in the area and took us to all the best spots. I was so glad that we decided not to rent a car, but rather to do this. That way we were able to concentrate on enjoying the beautiful scenery!
