BESTSince the bus tour was not available, I paid more and took a minivan tour. I don't know if it's because I sat in the back, but it didn't feel more comfortable than the bus. However, I was given enough time at each point, so I was able to leisurely see, feel, and take pictures of nature. I was personally satisfied.
