We visited a community for an excellent lunch and cultural experience. Besides the beauty and rigorous exercise that we enjoyed, what made this trip memorable were the people. Our guides were friendly, caring, and adventurous. Our fellow travelers were from various countries, interesting, friendly and fellow thrill seekers. I highly recommend this tour. We were a family of four traveling with 2 teenage boys.”
