    This was a great tour! Our driver and guide, Karthik, was brilliant... very knowledgeable, relaxed and entertaining. The tour took us to various spots all of which were great to see. Even though it is a fair drive there and back, the van was very comfortable and w were provided with a bag of goodies that was gratefully received. Overall this trip is a must do!
