Great tour for limited time. Both of the drivers, the one that picked us up at the airport and the one for the 5 days trip (Michael) was really helpful. The tourist guide (Edith) was smart but a bit cool. The whole trip was really nice except the last day, which was only for traveling back and shopping.
