My wife and I loved this trip. Roberto was a great guide who made sure we saw everything we wanted to. He had to drive far out of his way to get us back to the hotel because a wildfire had closed so many roads, but he was pleasant and professional the whole time.
Thank you for the review. We are delighted that you had a good day out with Roberto.
