    I thought the holiday was enjoyable, though the walking was tough at times perhaps above my level. One notable subject was that our guide gave us excellent service and consideration. Only one slight negative was the transport arrandement between the airport and hotel on initial landing (5th) Oct, this appeared to be bady arranged., as I had to call "Explore" for assistance.

    Really enjoyed this tour. Our tour guide Mercedes was very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful with restaurant and activity recommendations. Overall the itinerary was good. One suggestion I would make is to spread out some scheduled activities over a couple of days. There were some days where too much was planned in one day so it was difficult to cover everything well. Then a whole day was left as free time which was too much. Our guide was able to move things around so that we had less free time on one day but able to do everything well. That flexibility was very good.
