6 Day Great Southern Tour
"there are no words"
Not only did I go on the Driftwood 6-day Great Southern Tour, but I piggy-backed that tour with the 6-day Northern Tour.
Both were just amazing. I love that we didn't only go to "touristy" places, we were taken to "off-the-beaten path" spots as well.
I'm telling everyone I know about this company and am looking for another Driftwood Tour to go on in 2025.
