Great response after booking. Was picked up at airport .clear sign with my name on it. My driver was Adrianna . We went to tortoise ranch. A beautiful place . David the guide was knowledgeable ..Many tortoises .Lava tunnels were interesting. There is a gift shop. Free coffee which was delicious . Bathrooms . They also have rubber boots if your worried about getting your shoes dirty . After the reserve I was taken to hotel , by that time your hotel room is ready and you can check in.
