Our guide was very knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. I learned a lot from her. I thought I was booking a golf cart tour, but it turns out there was a miscommunication and we ended up with a walking tour. This is no fault of our guide.

Our guide did not show up. When we called the company, twice, they stated our guide was on the way. When we had waited a half hour past the beginning time, we booked a tour with another company that was present. Don’t book with this company, but do the tour! It was amazing! We learned so much more than expected and even had a few laughs. Beautiful place and I will definitely recommend a tour there.
