The air holds dust and thyme; every turn opens another sculpted ridge or wide, wind-carved amphitheater.

The operator's policy allows full refunds if you cancel at least 24 hours in advance; tours are not automatically canceled for light rain—check with the provider for same-day changes.
Tours welcome children and families but require adults to supervise infants (who must sit on laps) and may set minimum age/weight for safe riding—confirm at booking.
