HIGHLY recommend to anyone who is second thinking it.”

Dagen startede dog lidt underligt, da vi blev hentet af en privatbil, og af en chauffør som ikke kunne engelsk, så derfor kunne vi ikke helt få at vide, hvad vi skulle og hvem han var. Han kørte ret vildt. Vi samlede vores guide Floyd op lidt udenfor Maras, og han var topklasse. Vi havde Maras helt for os selv, og han var venlig til at tage billeder og svare på spørgsmål. ATV-turen var mega fed, og vi følte os trygge med Floyd ved vores side. Lagunen var lidt kedelig, men fint med et stop. På turen hjem stoppede chaufføren ved en baggård, hvor vi kunne se…”
