Creator's Key Takeaways
So, we say don't do this tour. Save yourself 100 bucks or do take that hundred bucks and invested in something better.
But the big reason you go on this ecoour is to see animals. And I'm a little bit of a bird nerd. And I was really looking forward to seeing all the cool birds.
not kind of disappointing on the wildlife perspective. So, would you recommend people take it? I would not.
