4.8/ 5 (2174 Reviews)

"This is a once in a lifetime experience. The tour is so well planned and everything was made so simple for us. Boosi, our guide, was incredible. She goes above and beyond and she is so knowledgeable. Her passion for her beautiful culture is such an inspiration. She gave us so much interesting information and made everything very clear and easy to understand. Our driver was great and very helpful. The van was very comfortable. Pickup was just in time. A wonderful experience. Do not doubt for second getting a profesional guide like Boosi to visit these sites. It would be overwhelming not to have someone with you to navigate all there is to do and see." - Guillermo, June 2025 >> All Reviews
