I want to express my great gratitude for the tour that Laura took from One way tour. It was very engaging and informative, without water. The tour guide is very friendly and responsible. In one day, we visited several monasteries, the wonderful Mermaid Hair Falls, and the Arena Winery. Definitely recommended!
