    Tour guide was excellent. Not happy with your advertising as it really is only 5 days of sightseeing. Some hotels were a distance from places to eat.

    Knowledgeable tour guide - excellent bus driver. Tour is well organized with free time and options when the weather changed the plans. Food was good and suggestions were good. Communication was last minute, meaning the week before with the details, which made our planning more difficult.
