This trip was fast-paced, fun, and the memory of a lifetime. Book it!! Our tour wouldn't have been the same without our WONDERFUL guide, who was so kind, energetic, sweet, and helpful! She had the BEST recommendations, funniest stories, and truly made sure everything was clear - her communication was on point, with regular itineraries and messages in the WhatsApp group chat that told us exactly when and where we needed to be. She also made sure to take care of those who were sick (like me!) by taking us to the pharmacy and translating for us. She is truly an A-star tour guide!!

The trip was awesome! Got to stay for 2 nights in most of the places we went which was good as it felt more relaxed while we were on the trip, however you keep finding that it's never enough time in certain places, so it is a good taster for seeing different cities and figuring out places you would like to see more of later. We did all find that we got sick during the trip, because of the time spent together in the coach and the constant late nights and early mornings so watch out for that.
