This was a very good tour. What I was impressed with was the tour guide and the company providing the tour. The coach was new and comfortable. The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the tour and added a lot of value to the tour. Our 7 and 4 year old children enjoyed it as well. I recommend this tour for anyone wanting to explore a great guide.
