Our guide really made the trip more than anything but the itinerary was very well put together with so much of such a huge country being covered in such a short time. This is my first trip travelling like this and it is by far the best holiday I've ever had, I feel like I made genuine friends with all my companions and never felt lonely despite arriving in the country on my own.
