5.00Trip trip went very well. The driver contacted us the day before to confirm pick up arrangements, he arrived early at our hotel on the morning, and he was both friendly and informative for the 1 hour drive to the destination. We stayed a little longer at the destination than planned, but our driver was most accommodating, and assured us that there was no problem. Also the guide that showed us around the site was most informative and interesting. All in all a very good day. I'd rate this experience as a 10 out of 10. Regards, Mark Small
