    Our holiday was great. We experienced so many wonderful animals, food and people. The accommodation was okay. The casa de Nelly was incredible as was the red booby hotel but the blue house was loud, smelled an awful lot like sewage, was uncomfortable and overall, unprepared. Our drivers were knowledgeable but often late picking us up. We did enjoy the freedom to roam and explore untied to a group.

    Having an itinerary with the ability to be flexible with event times was a welcomed first! Bamba was very immediate with their responses with we had questions during our stay as well! Also, scheduling our last minute Covid test so we could re-enter the US was glutch! Also the Hostel's staff enhanced the trip! Glad we selected that option!
