    Definitely do again

    The swing and fox were really great and the staff very helpful. Transport to the site is on a minibus but there is still a bit of a hike up to the fox that they do not tell you about. Definitely do it again. Great...More

    Hi there! Check-in is 15 minutes before the trip time, and you should allow 2.5 hours for the whole trip. So if you booked the 4.30pm trip; check in will be 4.15pm and you would be back in town around 7pm. Hope this helps!
