I was able to go to everything place that I wanted to. They give you a questionnaire so they can take you to places where you will be most interested which is great. The tour guide Lando was entertaining, knowledgeable, and very attentive to what I wanted to do.

This tour was great because the company customizes the tour to your needs and they even prepare a questionnaire before you go on the tour. But what made the tour great was Lando as he was not only knowledgeable but very entertaining to be with and most importantly knew where to go, what to eat, and what to experience so that I would have a good time. I highly recommend this tour anyone!
