So much thought and planning went into this itinerary to make the trip an amazing experience.

Good places visited but you will need to add on the optional extras to get the full benefits of the tour and add this to the cost of the tour as well as the expected gratuities for the driver and guide!!

Had a great time but trip is full on. Would recommend having lifts in all hotels. A couple of places a bit hard lugging bags up stairs for us women

We thought the coach was comfortable and met our needs. We thought some of the hotels were too cramped and didn't have enough room for two people and our suitcases. We also thought some of the places we stopped at to look around had very little to see and the only reason we stopped there was because of convenience for the overnight stay.

It is the right one for people who don’t want to rush every day
