Fantastic experience

Camila_A, Aug 2022
We really enjoyed this trip. Our tour guide was throughly knowledgeable about the area and gave us a great look into the locals of the area. One of our favorite parts was having lunch at a local lake. I was feeling under the weather but it would have been the perfect time to try some of the local cuisine as they eat it. The historic sites were also phenomenal and our tour guide was very knowledgeable and able to talk us through a lot. I would recommend this tour to anyone.

My friend and I had the best time on this tour! Definitely one of our favorite experiences of all time! Every little detail was taken care of and we learned so much as well. Antonio was amazing, he had a great sense of humor and even took it upon himself to take us to all the best picture taking spots. Cannot recommend this tour enough!

Wow, would like to go again...
