5.00A very active vacation. The most wonderful guide Ive ever met. Very experienced drivers. They were always helpful, answered questions, the transport was very comfortable, lots of stops, and very beautiful places. There was a chic restaurant where we ate delicious food at a reasonable price. A cozy atmosphere, it was always fun and very interesting. I highly recommend this tour to everyone, 100 out of 10, now I want to go on the tour again. I miss everyone so much already. You are the best ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
