John was our guide who was very experienced and friendly. He talks non-stop, but that is what he is paid to do. He shares interesting facts, puns and jokes throughout the day from early morning to sunset. The stops are all great, the bus/van is very comfortable and clean. I highly recommend this tour. We had a fun lunch at Mel's Drive in, and saw beaches, canals, celebrity homes from a distance, etc. Wear good walking shoes, and bring a camera and a watch/phone to make sure you meet back up in time. This tour is very extensive and varied. The four of us had a really great time, all adults 53-80 years old. Minimal shopping opportunities, which was fine for me.
