Excellent even in winter!

Shizuka_M, July 2019

In two days, this tour covers a lot more than you can cover on your own. Our tour guide, Daniel was very thoughtful about everybody’s needs, flexible, conscientious & funny. The best of all, he was a great story teller: I learned way more than I expected from a commercial tour!

Response from Host, July 2019

Hi there, and thank you for your lovely review! Amazing that you had such good time with us. Daniel is certainly one of a kind story teller! We are happy to hear that you felt like many new things were learned. Thanks again, and hopefully we'll see you again on our other tours!
