5.00Our group of four had a wonderful time & enjoyed every minute of our tour that exceeded our expectations. We were picked up from our meeting place on time. We had a very pleasant, excellent , entertaining ,& patient tour guide named Fernando who took our photos on the best locations of the Villa. He is a very good photographer as well. We also had an excellent driver that made sure we were safe. The lunch buffet that was included with the tour was sumptuous . We enjoyed the ride pulled by a carabao & the live serenading duo of Filipino songs as we traveled to the waterfalls . Thank you so much for the excellent service rendered. I highly recommend this tour to everyone.
