Customer Reviews
- Peter· June 26th, 2025Tesi the guide was good. The only criticism I have is that she gave us too many options: when some people took one option and others another, arrangements became complex. I suggest that the approach should be 'This is what we're going to do. If anybody would like to do something else, let me know'. There should not have been a big hike on the first day, when many people were still suffering from the effects of travel. Although the driver was very helpful, the air-conditioning on the bus did not work well, and the bus was very slow on the last day.Show more
- Muhammad· May 25th, 2025It was a good experience. Beautiful scenery. Delicious food. Accommodation was comfortable and central to all amenities. Tour leader was very nice,kind and co operative. She has good knowledge and kept engaged with the group all the time.Show more
- Robin· October 15th, 2024This was a nice itinerary, and the guide was excellent. Unfortunately, the tour was too short, and would have been improved by having more time in a couple of cities. Now we'll have to go back on our own!Show more
