The driver was very good and had the patients of a saint with a difficult traveller. The tour was as planned and any minor change was discussed in full prior to it happening. The driver was very clear on what was happening and when. Several new stops were interesting. These drivers are able to deal with any change or issue and give accurate information to deal with the issue. The Company has however cancelled or combined trips on two occasions that caused me to have to change flights on one occasion at my expense.
