Travel arrangements all worked well even with delayed flight. Hotel excellent rooms and food. A dish of greens on table with dinner items would be ideal and less porato in selections. But good crafted menus by chef. Tour Manager had the right info at the right time. Clearly a lot of work and contacts made to ensure tour went well. Pace of tour excellent as timings non rushed. Weather fir us excellent on the whole. Recommend this tour.
