We had a blast on The Gus Bus! We can’t thank Gus enough for all the knowledge he shared and how fun he was along the way. I really appreciated how cognizant he was of making sure we took proper breaks during the walk up to Pena Palace and how he made sure to keep us on schedule during the day. Thank you again, Gus!
Very enjoyable experience and a great way to learn more about the country. Our host Gus was simply the best!
