Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the natural landscapes and the culture of the local people. This was very helpful as I learned what to and what not to do to avoid being disrespectful. I truly loved the culture and experiencing it all while on this trip. CharlieTheTraveler did a great job planning this out!
