The driver was very nice and on time. I was very impressed with the guide whose name is unknown. He was very knowledgeable, spoke English well and could articulate the events in a manner that was clear, engaging and interesting. He was very serious but very good. I really liked him and learned a lot. It was an enriching experience.
