“The tour was very good and the guide was wonderful. She offered to take pictures for us at many locations which we really appreciated. We liked that there were multiple stops that were not more than 30 minutes or so at each. I would have liked a van that was a little taller or had taller windows so I could have seen outside better, but that is just a personal preference.”
