Our guide was very...
Our guide was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of info and interesting facts about the area. If he didn’t know the answer to a question, he said just that. He pointed out any wildlife that crossed our path, which on the day we toured were MANY eagles. He gave great suggestions of places to visit in town once our tour was finished. We enjoyed it very much!
