    The trip was very enjoyable and informational as well. If you’re a chocolate and cheese lover, this trip is definitely for you. If not, you will still learn something from this trip. My tour driver John was very friendly and engaging as he shared a good history of the places we visited. He made the entire trip interesting so there was not a boring moment.
