We had a great time. They came on time to our hotel, and picked us up in a clean car with water bottles arranged for us. I was traveling with my son, and he was not feeling well. They customized the tour to handle all our requests. Our tour guide Grace took care of everything for us like buying tickets and arranging for lunch that my son liked. Would definitely recommend.
