Today we went with Marco up to The Nuns Valley. Unexpected stop at a family run Sweet Factory (Highlight of the day )! Marco drove well to get us up Twisty Mt roads.+ Down into Nuns Valley. He is SO informative we learnt a great deal from his commentary . Inexpensive 5hours / very Well worth doing. Make your own Itinery as we did today . Go Off Piste and see the Local places the Bigger companies don't visit. We would highly recommended this company + Marco

We had an excellent private half day tour! We stopped at various viewpoints with breathtaking views. When we arrived at the sugarcane mill it was quite busy but luckily we had our amazing guide who knew so much about the place/history so we didn’t miss out on anything. The honey cake biscuits/cake were delicious. Many liquors available to buy in case anyone wants to take some back home. Highly recommend!
