Great trip, one long drive
Loved the stays and food. One travel day was longer than expected because of traffic, but the driver made good stops.
Well organised from start to finish
Airport pick-up was on time, every hotel had our booking ready and the guide explained the history really well.
Perfect for our family
Travelled with my parents and two kids. The pace was relaxed, hotels were clean and warm, and they changed one day around when it rained.
