5.00We had an amazing experience with Rino! She was fun, energetic, and genuinely cared about making sure we had a great time. She shared so many helpful tips and was extremely knowledgeable throughout the entire experience. Her English was excellent, and her communication was very clear… she was punctual, laid out the rules upfront, and made everything easy to understand. This made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable, and I’m so glad I didn’t do this tour on my own. (Below is the only photo you need to book this tour) ;)
