19th November 2024Review ratingIt met all my expectations. The guide was thoughtful and very organized she knew us well within a day or two. I personally had difficulty walking in the caves however received support from her to get through the cave. Then did the Grotto Sassi walk. I loved the places went and felt very safe. The people were very kind. I must comment on our driver. Such a kind thoughtful gentleman. He got off the bus at each stop to offer a hand if needed. Bus was immaculate. The trip would be different without our knowledgeable guide and driver.
