Maru was very motivated and knowledgeable guide. I like that when we reach our different locations we have the option to break off from the group with clear instructions on where to meetup should you choose to. Overall an amazing and informative experience and everyone I met was friendly. I look forward to coming back and booking with my friends in the future.
