Nelson (with glasses) was our guide. Very informative, good bloke, transport was great. I originally thought the length of tunnels was going to be to short but more than enough. I'm 6'2" and was on hand and knees going thru tunnels. An excellent tour. No complaints at all. There was only a couple other groups present whilst we were there, not crowded at all. It is worth the the extra time.I highly recommend visiting the tunnels as it was a wonderful experience. Beo, our guide, was both knowledgeable and amiable, adding to the overall enjoyment of the trip.
