Honestly one of the best tours I’ve taken. She was extremely knowledgeable and super engaging. With some large tours we’ve taken, tour guides would just walk and talk and most people would not be able to hear them. She actually got to her destination and waited for everyone in the tour to huddle around then would explain the information (with a mic). That is so underrated yet it makes the tour so much more enjoyable. Props to her! We had a great time.
