    The views were spectacular! The lunch was delicious also. Our guide was very knowledgeable she gave us a wealth of information along the way. We were so lucky to have her. She made the trip flawless and so enjoyable.. It was worth every penny to do the private tour.. Thank you Juliana and George!
