The views were lovely. Elvira’s was delicious. Our guide was well steeped in the history of the surrounding area. It was a little slow for an 11-year-old, but we got to see a lot of things we would not have known about otherwise.

Pam was great!! Very informative, very interesting, very helpful and nice!!! Would definitely recommend to anyone!! She was very attentive to everyone’s needs at all times, friendly, personable, funny and very down to Earth. She had so much knowledge and kept it interesting the entire time. Relaxing trip, great to see things without having to worry about driving. Took us to mostly nature/woods areas plus a little town driving so we were happy about that. Lunch was great too. If we come down again, I’d bring or recommend it to our family and friends.

There was no one at the listed meeting place and therefore we missed the tour and are expecting a full refund. Very disappointed as this was a tour that we looked forward to.

There was someone at the meeting place the other 9 passengers boarded and we waited around until 15 after for you to show up or respond to the messages we sent. You never called, you never replied to the messages and the number you listed was not a working number. How about maybe pick up the phone and call the number listed on the voucher like 99.9% of others who have difficulties in finding a white van in a huge empty parking lot.
