What a wonderful experience. Our guide was so helpful and very informative. We learned so much and everything was just perfect.
It was a pleasure to meet and be guided by Elvira. She is a local guide and is very knowledgeable. Our driver, Marco, was safe as well as helpful in choosing a restaurant for lunch. Yum!!
