Brace yourself though because it’s going to be one helluva ride.

T’was like Hindang all over again, only rougher. It got me thinking if I was way overdressed for the trip… Maybe I should have been in my trekking attire.

If there are only 1~5 passengers, ask for their Range Rover because it’s more comfortable. We never knew about this option because it was never brought up by the front desk officer when I made my booking.
