    Dear Nils, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience and for your positive feedback about your trip — we're really glad to hear you felt well taken care of throughout your journey! Regarding the group tour experience, we understand your concern.

We truly appreciate your feedback, and we’ll work on making this aspect clearer in the future. We're sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused, and we’re happy to hear it didn’t take away from your overall enjoyment of exploring the country.
