We had a great time. We had an excellent tour guide and the tour mates were friendly. We really enjoyed the local artisans like obsidian stone crafts, woodwork and textiles. Lots of beautiful arts and craft shops to indulge in for shopping

This was a great introduction to a region I knew little about. The tour certainly delivered an experience I?ll replay in my head for a long time. Just the right amount of amount of activity packed in a short period of time. I learned about people, places, and significant events. It?s an experience that?s definitely helped me appreciate the diversity of our world and I thank G Adventures for making the experience an unforgettable one.
