Very disappointing. When we were at the museum, the tour guide expected us to wait in line because the first 2000 people had free entrance to the museum. We paid extra so as not to wait. I believe that wen I book a tour with a company everthing is included and not have to pay my own entrance fee to the sites. The tour guide rushed us through the tour. The tours my be boring for the tour guide but for us, we expect to be give the necessary time to see the sites. I will never book another tour with your company.

Truly enjoyed my tour. My guide was extremely knowledgeable, and the driver drove with care and safety. My guide was courteous and helpful and took very good care of me as I was taking the tour by myself. Yes, I would recommend it. The car was comfortable and clean.
