    Greg is amazing! He had so much knowledge about the area but made it fun and not boring. He went the extra mile to bring the local culture into the trip as well but buying locals sweets and drinks to share with the group. He always made sure everyone was accounted for.

    Greg was the best guide we could have ever asked for. He was incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, funny, and caring. He went above and beyond for me and my wife, and he made our trip something that we will look back on happily for the rest of our lives. We would gladly travel anywhere with Greg, and hope to take another trip with him in the very near future.
