A great and safe tour with excellent views to photograph - I can really recommend this 2 ½ tour. A really interesting tour, on time, and with excellent commentary and very safe driving from our guide, Paul. We had 30 minutes at the top of the mountain to take photos, and hikers can be dropped off at several places on the way down the mountain.

Went on a nice sunny day! - It's probably the best way to get all the way up top if you don't drive or rent a car. 30 minutes up top is not a lot of time so you won't get to do any bushwalking/washing tracks. We decided not to do the hop on and off option because the in between service wait time is quite long. Overall recommended if you hadn't checked out my Wellington.

Great morning out! - We had a great time. No responsibility of driving up a precarious mountain because David our very skilled driver took care of this for us. David was not only a safe driver, he was entertaining, informative and very knowledgable of the local area. He also gave us some great suggestions on where to eat, which we followed up on and we were not disappointed.
