Awesome Day! - Our driver Scott was awesome. He worked with us on our itinerary and what we wanted to see and do. When we made a stop, we would call him when we were done and he was right there to pick us up! So worth the price, we will do it again.

This is a bait and switch tour so don't book it - This was originally booked as a limo with driver and guide. This was what my granddaughter's were the most excited about. There was no limo and quite a bit of it was walking. The guide and driver were fabulous. I would not have paid $1200.00 for a guide and right very in a van. I could have booked several tours for this amount of money.
