our guide Leila sorted everything for us and a little local spot off the usual route was the highlight, and honestly better than the tour we did in Lisbon last year.

our guide Aiko was brilliant and the bit at the end nobody expects was the highlight, and miles ahead of a similar tour we tried in Phuket.

our guide Hassan sorted everything for us and a stop the guide added on the fly was the highlight ... Mid-week so it was quiet so it wasnt too busy. Perfect for first-timers, and 6 stops in about 3 hours, and ran the full 4 hours promised. Would book again no question.
