Para mi lo mas importante en un viaje es la comodidad, en este tour privado lo encontre y a un nivel mucho mas alto de lo que me esperaba realmente el guia un amor de persona, la pasciencia que nos entrego fue maravillosa y nos explico todo y ademas en espanol ya saben que no en todos los paises se entrega este tipo de servicios pero aca si que la hay y en casi todos los idiomas. Espero sinceramente que algun dia vayan y veran que no se arrepentiran..
We were travelling on a cruise ship with 3 couples and booked a private tour our tour guide seemed to get us to each place before the big crowds arrived thanks.

This tour was booked as from a cruise ship arrival for 10 people. I must say we realy enjoyed we had a great time.

Our guide was truly a blessing! She was knowledgeable and easy to understand. The vehicle we used was beautiful and very comfortable.
The places we visted were Mary’s House, Esphesus ruins, a pottery shop and a leather goods shop. We also stopped for lunch at a beautiful outdoor cafe. The food and the hospitality was great.
The guide was very flexible being a private vehicle they would stop anywhere we asked them to. It was amazing experience with these great people.
It was a great day with so much to see in such a beautiful city
An awesome experience that everyone should do in their lifetime! The team was very nice and helpful through it all. The scenery in Rotorua was the most perfect backdrop to skydive.
