Amer was great! We had the bad luck of the tour day falling on a potentially dangerous rain day - but he was super flexible and informed to ensure that we could do the tour safely. Lunch was excellent at the Afghan/Iranian place overlooking the gorge and rose terraces. We want to come back when they are in bloom. I think our favourite 2 spots that we visited were the falaj and Birkat al Mouz. Amer was very accommodating, gracious and patience with our kids.
