    Extremely disappointed. Optional excursions as sold to us by tour guide, Steen, was completely misrepresented and overpriced. When I tried speaking to Steen about my concerns I was talked down to in a demeaning and patronizing manner. This prompted me to cancel all remaining excursions as I cannot guarantee they will be anything as described by Steen. So upset by this tour.

    The overall tour was a great experience. The tour director, Chris Tremlett, was wonderful and the tour was well organised. Although we the itinerary was good, wish we could spend more time in certain places but understand that due to time factor, it may not be possible. My wife and I enjoyed ourselves listening to the history of the various places.
