An amazing day!! - I had the best time on this excursion! Abdul came and picked me up at my hotel, and then we met Osman by Jozani forest. Osman planned the day so that we would not need to meet to many other tourists, and that I really appreciated. He had a lot of knowledge, and both him and Abdul spoke great English. Abdul also joined for some of the trip, and he took a lot of pictures for me. Since I’m a solo traveler that was really nice! Thank you so much for an amazing day!
