Thisvtour had to many tourists in... - <p>Thisvtour had to many tourists in the group, (around 50) served by only one (!) guide. She was trying to provide information to people from mamy different countries in the group, and had to repat everything in 4 languages. This made us wait most of the time and listen to incomprehensible talk.</p>
