Great tour - highly recommend it - Our guide, Antonio, made this tour exceed my expectations. Not only did he explain the local customs and culture, but he made the entire day a learning adventure. On the way to the bridge, we stopped to buy Oropesa bread straight out of the oven and then made another stop for Coca tea leaves. On the way to and from the bridge, we were able to stop and take scenic pictures as well as speak with the locals. We had plenty of time at the bridge, crossing and recrossing, before stopping for a picnic lunch along a beautiful lake. Antonio walked us through the gratitude ceremony with the tea leaves. A really fabulous start on our adventure.
