Lucy, our driver & tour guide was knowledgeable, funny, and just a delight! Great historical anecdotes.

So let me premise this with I don’t think the driver had bad intentions. But because I was solo I was put up front, people bring your earplugs in case this happens to you. The driver was yelling. I mean yelling the tour. I tried to subtly hint by lifting a hand to my ear but that didn’t change much. But my next thing is, if you ask someone where they are from- don’t do it in order to mock them especially when they are by themselves being the only from the North??? Surely a lot of people from there also come on these tours and they do so to be able to just feel happy and the hospitality y’all are famous for? if you are going to keep cracking jokes towards the one single woman in the whole group, well you just made the tour pretty awful for someone. I was mortified honestly. Just not cool. Luckily I did experience hospitality when I came back to my hotel crying and the staff here gave me a hug because I was so upset.

Jonathan (and Coca Cola, of course!) were really great! It was such a pleasant and relaxing way to see some of the neighborhoods!
