Excellent itinerary but flexible to what you want to do. Our guide Patrick was excellent. Company communication is excellent. Only thing to know is vehicles dont have good leg room and they dont have air-conditioning but ventilation from open roof. We had a very good time.

Tour was in guide's personal car. Bill, driver, was friendly and helpful. Car was small and A/C inadequate for wife's comfort. Young man Guide at Jesus Fort was knowledgeable and helpful. His Dad was a tourguide there 40 years. After this part of our tour, my wife was exhausted and very hot, so we asked Bill to return us to our cruise ship.
