Het was allemaal super goed geregeld. Gids sprak verschillende talen en je kon alles aan haar vragen. Je had voldoende tijd om rond te lopen op de plekken waar je stopte.
De gids gaf ook duidelijk aan hoelaat je weet terug bij de bus moest zijn.
Bij ons waren er veel 50 plussers maar als 23 jarige was het ook super leuk om mee te gaan.
