“This is by far the worst tour we have ever booked and we have booked many tours in different countries. About two hours before the start of the tour, the tour guide asked us to arrive early for no reason. The information given during the tour was sparse and superficial, reduced to the bare minimum. In a nutshell: It was a waste of a lot of money.”
