Excellent performance! The guides are very professional and friendly. Especially Jamy. They were attentive and very friendly :) The places were superb and the party atmosphere was there. I highly recommend. My daughter Shirley and I LOVED it!

The guides were super nice and even as a solo traveler I felt very safe the whole time. All participants were very nice and the guides looked out for everyone's well-being!
