Beautiful setting and really a site not to be missed. They really need to put a cap on how many tickets they sell as it got very crowded very fast.
A wonderful visit! Our tour guide, Sarah, was lovely. She was full of information, made sure we were comfortable in the van including providing wifi and knew the best spots for getting the perfect photos despite the large crowds and be warned, there are large crowds!.
