Totally worth the money - I am glad we book this tour. Ten of us all enjoyed it thoroughly! - We have Caroline as our tour guide. She is a local and grew up in this village that we are visiting . Her English is excellent. Her stories are interesting, and she is super friendly and helpful. She carries a big smile on her face all the time. We love all the itinerary in this tour. Our driver Ajiz (?) is also super. He is friendly, helpful and he is good at his job. All in all worth every penny!

Wonderful excursion! - This was one of our best experiences we had on our vacation! Our guide David was great! Very informative and loved sharing his culture and knowledge. The windmills were amazing and loved meeting Peter the windmill owner! We all enjoyed the clog factory and learning about cheese making and sampling the cheese. The entire village was a great and would recommend visiting early as it got crowed as the day went on. We would definitely recommend this tour!
