Unsafe driving - Orhid is beautiful but the day and tour was not as expected. The car was small and uncomfortable for such a long day driving. Our guide/driver Mike was erratic when driving and it felt unsafe. He reached 165km at one point when speed limit was 80km and we had to ask him to slow down. He bragged to us he has driven 180km.
