Don’t bother. Get a taxi/Uber for a fraction of the price and with no other hotel stops on the way. No guide at all. No facilities. Ridiculous price for glorified taxi trip. The walk and sunset was amazing but don’t know how Tui can justify the experience when it’s basically a taxi run

Wir wurden pünktlich abgeholt, die Kommunikation im Vorfeld war gut, es war nicht viel los. Die Wanderung oben war abenteuerlich und der Ausblick unbezahlbar, wir hatten ein tollen Sonnenuntergang! Allerdings viel zu teuer für nur hin-und Rückfahrt, vorher gab es oben auch mal Essen dazu was abgeschafft wurde, also vorher dinieren. Etwas kühler ist es dort schon und keine Toiletten.

The pick up was 30 minutes late due to traffic. The actual experience lasted 2.5hours from pick up to drop off, it was advertised as 4.5 hours. The meal was rushed as we were late getting there and although the food was nice there were no choices. The meal was eaten in a brick barn, which was quite odd. The sunset was stunning, but it was advertised as seeing the stars as well, but we left before the sun had set fully so didn't get to see the stars. It was a lot of money for a short excursion.

It was good travelling to a different part of the island & witnessing the change in landscape & atmosphere. The meal was very tasty & location put a unique touch to the evening which we enjoyed. Found memories made.

Mooie ervaring op een prachtige plek. We hadden prachtig weer. Jammer dat deze excursie niet bij de TUI balie zelf is te reserveren. Dat schijnt te komen doordat het geen 'eigen' excursie is. De promotietekst klopt ook niet helemaal (meer?). Er is geen rondleiding en geen telescoop voor sterren kijken.

Es war eine sehr schöne Tour. Essen, Service und die gesamte Atmosphäre war traumhaft. Einzig, die langen Fahrten um alle Gäste abzuholen und zurück zu bringen, war etwas anstrengend.

Positive: Aufgrund der schwierigen Wetterverhältnisse haben sich die Guides bemüht eine Alternative zu finden um ein Sonnenuntergang Erlebnis möglich zu machen. Picknick war auch gut. Negativ: Die Guides haben während des Sonnenuntergangs uns zum Essen gedrängt und wir sind dann schnell wieder zurück ins Hotel gebracht worden. Der vorgesehene 4 1/2 Stunden Ausflug hat nur 3 1/2 Stunden gedauert.

The whole experience was once in a lifetime. We apparently had amazing conditions which helped. The view, complemented with the food and the ambience that evening is going to stay with us forever
