    Was my first overseas trip and from the moment I got their Jeffery made me feel totally safe. Nothing was to hard for him, his local knowledge was beyond belief. He took the time to make sure everyone was up to speed with the what, where's and when's. We celebrated Christmas,news years,his birthday and a local wedding with him. He is singlehandedly the reason I will travel with intrepid again.
