Wonderful tour with guide note 10.

It was a wonderful experience. Despite the weather conditions, the company held the tour confirms contracted despite the reduced number of people. Also the guide Hrvoje was super attentive giving all the information and support throughout the tour. Also did the whole tour in Portuguese, which the guide speaks perfectly. Thanks Hrvoje for everything.

Hrvoje was punctual, knowledgeable, informative who provided a great pace for our tour. I would highly recommend him. His language skills were exceptional. He guided us through the national park stopping at the best view points! Our ride was enhanced by his willingness to share his knowledge of culture, history and politics!
