6–7 hours.
Suitable for people in average fitness who can handle bumpy rides and short, easy walks; not strenuous but requires mobility for boarding jeeps.
Yes—operators advertise the tour as family‑friendly, but children must be supervised and infants typically sit on laps during transfers.
A BBQ lunch (pasta, salad, grilled chicken or meatballs) is included; vendors in villages accept cash for snacks or extras.
Most itineraries include a lakeside stop where guests can swim—bring swimwear and a towel as these are not always provided.
The tour is not recommended for travelers with spinal injuries or for pregnant guests due to the bumpy off‑road terrain.
