We saw quite alot in a short time. The drivers and guides were great. I would advise anyone to go on these tours. They are very cost effective which attracted a few lower class rude and deceitful travellers. It was hard to watch the wholesale theft of buffet breakfast items into bags to cover the rest of the days food intake.
