Amazing tour! We caught it on a rainy day but our guide Lara was so amazing that we were able to make the best of it. With our approval she adjusted the tour a tad to accommodate for the rain. Such amazing information and she gave plenty of great recommendations for the rest of our trip. She also offered us to text her if we had any questions throughout our stay. Thank you Lara!
