Kuranda Scenic Railway, Skyrail, Great Barrier Reef Helicopter Tour and Cruise
Cairns, Palm Cove and Northern Beaches, Australia
My Rating

The railway was nice, with some great views. I loved the skyrail which had awesome views of the forest and coatline and made me feel like a bird flying above it all, the helicopter also made me feel like a bird flying above the ocean. I really enjoyed the views of the barrier reef and ocean life, including a shark. The glass bottom boat was great, I was able to see the reef in depth with great views and a great narrative by the speaker. The lunch and boat ride back were alot of fun, the food was good and the ride was fun, I enjoyed getting sprayed by a wave as we returned, and rlaxed with a nice glass of wine. All in all it was a great day and I feel that I experienced much of what Cairns has to offer in this one day tour, thanks fro a great time.

Tour/Activity
Warwick Castle, Oxford, Cotswolds and Stratford-upon-Avon Custom Day Trip
London, United Kingdom
My Rating

The tour director was very nice, and knowledgeable. The castle was interesting, I enjoyed seeing the dungeon, the living quarters were furnished and included wax historical people. Oxford is a nice city and the University is awesome to see. Stratford is also a very nice city and the hone of Shakespeare is very interesting. The Cotswolds portion is limited to viewing a few homes on the route to Oxford, and there was no way to take photos.

London to Stonehenge Shuttle Bus & Independent Day Trip
London, United Kingdom
My Rating

It was interesting to actually view and learn about the stones. The location is somehwat far out of the city and we were detained on the expressway for several hours due to an accident. Apparently there are no exits to allow traffice to flow, until the accident is cleared and the highway is reopened.

Beatles and Liverpool Rail Day Trip from London
London, United Kingdom
My Rating

I really enjoyed the tour and learning more about the Beattles. I took the tour in conjunction with the National Trust Tour of the interior of the Beatles childhood homes. My only concern which could have been a serious problem was that the locat Tour Agency, Evan Evans, did not book my bus tour with them for the afternoon as discussed with Viator. They claimed that Viator did not inform them, and that there was nothing that they could do. I was lucky in that one seat was available for the afternoon tour and I was able to make the change myself. Otherwise I would not have been able to take the tour that I paid for, as I had a morning tour with the National Trust Tour. Evan Evans did not care about what had happened, would not assist me, and they were half an hour late in meeting us at the train station in Liverpool. I would be interested to know if Viator actually told Evan Evans to book the afternoon tour as I had discussed with them, or as Evan Evans indicated, that Viator never told Evan Evans.

I enjoyed getting to see the Loch Ness after hearing so much about Nessie. The Highlands are beautiful and our director was very nice, and very knowledgeable.
