Michael UK

Great trip

19-Aug-2023

Great trip! The tour manager was very knowledgeable and a delight to travel with. The hotels were very nice. the food was good for the most part, but the first two included dinners were very plain with no other options to choose from. We really enjoyed all the excursions too.
