Amazing and Informative - This was an Amazing and Informative tour. My tour guide Safe was the best. He took time to explain the history of the country and their practices. We learned so much on this tour, I wish I did this tour on my first day. A lot of what we saw and heard about the country throughout the week made much more sense after this tour. I would definitely recommend 👌
