Liz · Traveled July 2024
First multi-day tour, this trip exceeded my expectations on numerous levels, including the activities, our group and our excellent guide ~ Gus. He paced our briefings well, provided unique local knowledge, supported further opportunities for exploration, and went the extra mile for everyone and more importantly, he was so funny. I really felt that I’ve tried it all! I’ve never felt so well taken care of while travelling abroad. At the same time, tailored enough for flexibility and adventure for those like me who wanted it. Delicious food and wine. Thank you for the amazing memories.
