This was a terrible trip please don't take it, nothing promised in brochures and advertisement was fulfilled. Accommodations were not luxery, there was no tour director, wellness director or concierge. Poorly organized and did not receive any value for $. I could have went on tour raider and booked the tours they provided for 20% of the price. stay away from luxery gold, they will not even address my concerns.Show more
