“Wonderful Tour! - Tour was great and is well worth the money. The pickup details were confirmed the evening before the trip. A van came to pick us right on the assigned time and took us to a meeting point where we were transferred to another van from another tour company. The guide was great, knowledgeable, had a good sense of humor and kept the group together all the time.” (Reviewed on 2024-07-24)
