Loved walking down the very colourful streets with the umbrellas and streamers. Beautiful. Our tour guide was very passionate about his home and knew the history extremely well.

I walked back and forth from ship to pickup point for over an hour in the intense heat until I paid for a tour with someone else. I had the contacts picture and I don;t believe she was ever there. I complained upon return home. They offered to give me a 70% refund. A month later, no refund yet. Very cordial to me over the phone. Took this tour 5 years ago and it was good, but not great.
