Wonderful tour in every aspect! - I loved! The tour was wonderful, very rich in beauty and culture. The agency staff were wonderful, the guide Glória was very attentive and kind. The van driver was very careful. The van was new and organized, the air conditioning was perfect, as the heat was killing! I highly recommend it!

Great day! - This was a great experience. Before the tour started, the company communicated with us via our hotel about pick up times, etc., and even let us know when they were running a couple minutes late. I appreciated that consistent communication.
Our guide was Gloria and she was great - very personable, accommodating, professional, and enthusiastic. The tour was short (half-day), but since we had private transportation, it was enough time to see everything (and even get some information during the drive). Visiting this museum and temple on our own would have taken all day, just from the amount of walking we would have had to do, so I was thankful we booked this tour. It made things a lot easier. We were able to cover more ground in a shorter amount of time, and still have most of the day left afterwards. And we couldn't have had a better guide. Thanks, Gloria! You're the best! ❤
