Mann konnte aber nie was abspielen da der Fahrer und Englische Guide immer zu hören war. 1x falsch gedrückt andere Tour oder andere Sprache. Frühstück ein Keks und Kaffe. Picknick ein Sandwich, Apfel und Rührkucken. Jeder hat das Picknick da gemacht wo er Lust hatte. Nach der Wanderung keine Zeit zum Fotografieren. Botanischer Garten wegen Regen ausgefallen. Kaffee musste ich selbst bezahlen. Ein kleines Glas Sekt gab es untern Regenschauer zum Abschluss. Preis /Leistung stimmt überhaupt nicht.”
