“This was not a good experience. Our guide was difficult to understand and didn’t provide context to what she was saying. She would hold up pictures on her phone but we had no idea what she was conveying. The whole thing was rushed and we could have used more time at each place. She tried her best so I blame the tour company for putting her in a position she wasn’t ready for..”
