Luis was an excellent communicator and he promptly arrived on time and in a well kept and comfortable vehicle. He is a native with much knowledge of the history and the area. We enjoyed our private sunset tour of sugarloaf mountain. It was a good combination of historical and local knowledge with free time to explore Sugarloaf and take sunset pictures. All of his suggestions including the fast pass made our experience very efficient and avoided waiting in long lines.

Amazing tour!
