All I can say is I hope your drivers are paid extremely well for having the skills to drive that road and of course with the cost of the tour they should be extremely well paid, not a job I would put my hand up for!!!! Jenny (I think was our driver) and she was amazing and probably isn't paid what she is worth!!! I was so scared as a passenger but excited for the adventure and relieved to have some one as skilful and experienced as Jenny.

Jenny once again took us on a Nomads adventure up the Skippers Canyon. She has previously driven us up the Arrow River to Macetown. We thoroughly enjoyed her stories about the characters that populated the Skippers in the gold mining days to the present. Her imaginative descriptions of the rock formations and her knowledge of the history of the area are entertaining and informative, and her driving skills are unquestionable. We had a fabulous morning. Thanks Jenny.
