Is this a good one?

Against others of its kind
At $500 a day this sits near the top of the range, against a $204 median for nature & wildlife. It is cheaper than 0 of the 8 nature & wildlife options mapped here.
When to go
Workable across 4 months of the year — Jul-Oct. Outside that the season is against you, not the school.
How long it really takes
Most people give it 10 days, but the honest range is 6 to 21. That spread is wide because how far you take it is up to you.
