Pedro was a fantastic and knowledgeable guide that took his time really giving us the history and stories to everything he saw.
The guide was not very personable and even though the tour was supposed to last two hours, he dropped us off at the town center - not the original pick up point as specified in the reservation - after an hour twenty minutes. We asked him to drop us at a spot he had showed us on the tour but would not do that even though there was lots of time left. Also Portuguese guides are not formally trained so often they don't know the answers to your questions or could even make up "facts".
During the two-hour tuk tuk tour, we were extensively briefed by Anatoliii. He showed us many beautiful places, stopped regularly so we could take pictures. We found it an unforgettable experience.
