“Adrenalin pur, mit Vollgas über unebene Straßen, stehend im Jeep. Die Tour begann mit einem Besuch am Wasserfall (30 min.) reicht aus um ein paar schöne Fotos zu machen. Danach ging es über enge Kurven und staubigen Pisten Richtung Gebirge. Nach einer kurzen trink und Erholungspause am See ging es zum Staudamm hoch. eine schnelle Fahrt mit Serpentinen. anschließend die Strecke wieder runter donnern und ab zum Seerestaurant für die längere Mittagspause wo entweder gebadet oder einen kleine Bootstour auf dem See unternommen werden kann. (60 min. im Preis enthalten). ein toller Tagestrip voller Spaß. sehr weiter zu empfehlen. ps. hat ich die Wasserschlachten zwischendurch schon erwähnt :)”

“Ze maken er iets leuks van. De jeeptour is een belevenis. Meer dan 10 jeeps kriskras over de weg, toeterend en elkaar inhalend. Leuk als je er in zit maar andere medeweggebruikers moesten vol in de remmen en toeterden gefrustreerd. Kinderen vonden het spectaculair. Stop in klein dorpje om wat te drinken en een pannenkoek te eten kost je flink. Het eten in het restaurant bij de Green lake moet je niet veel van verwachten. Klein beetje kip of zalm met wat droge rijst. Drinken en ijsjes zijn belachelijk duur. Reken op tussen €5 en €8 voor een drankje (cola). Je wacht daar bijna 2 uur totdat je op de…”
