Great excursion - bus was an issue but everything else was fantastic

5.00The tour was great, the guide Nina was superb! She has so much knowledge. The only downfall was the messing about with the coach - there was a 30 min wait past the pick up time and the air con was not great and there was no apology for the fact we waited so long past the allotted time to leave. Other than that - it was a great trip and we did get back on time to board the cruise.
This was spectacular. The guide was knowledgeable, professional and friendly.
