My expectation was a little higher!
picked us up, I felt uneasy with him, he kept asking me for confirmation of trip via what's app message. I said I've not had one, as later realised my number was written wrong.
He then drove to another hotel to pick more people up, a Spanish family,who he seemed to connect better with.
We stopped for dinner, lovely looked basic restaurant but I had 3 potatoes and a side salad, ehat I would class as child's meal. The meat eaters had the same side salad with a flattened piece of chicken. Drinks were on table,wine,beer and full sugar drinks. I had water, no desert and barley any food, but the night was not really about that.
We later drove around 15 mins to watch the sun setting, took photos and for those that drunk,had some cava.
Stayed there around 20 mins before driving to our final destination,
Fortunately and unfortunately there was a full moon, so we saw very few stars from light of the moon, but got some great picture of the moon from the telescope, there were 4 telescope there for a group of maybe 50 people to use.
The tour is advertised as being 6/7hrs but what they don't state is that's from pick up and drop off. Despite being back at our hotel at 12. We left the Mount 11pm.
The drive home was really not great for me personally, the driver states he will not talk no more,as driving in the night requires a bit more concentration, he then on my opinion drives pretty erratic driving to close to many cars, intimadting then,and then overtaking many also on a single road.
He was not professional ,he may be used to driving that road many times,but when he has customers, he has a care and duty to protect them,and drive responsibility.
After paying €70 each and that was discounted, I feel dinner should have just been skipped,and more time spent at the other 2 stops.i believe thete is an option to not have dinner,but that's if your driving up yourself and meeting them there.
The best part was photos are taken of you and then sent to your what's app,along with pictures of the sunset and moon 🌙
