“Gezellige gids. We reden in een oude rommelige landrover wat mij sterk deed denken aan het interieur van de bedrijfsbus van mijn echtgenoot. Heel herkenbaar en eigenlijk best wel sfeervol. In Timna Park ga je minstens een paar eeuwen tot duizenden jaren terug in de tijd. De gids neemt je in 4 uren mee langs de hoogtepunten in het park, waar je met gemak wel een hele dag zou kunnen doorbrengen als je alles wilt zien.”
