Overall the experience was a good one. My biggest issue was the size of the group (48 people) and some of the hotels. I went on a girl's trip with one of my friends so we were always 2 singles in a room. The rooms in some of the hotels were TINY - not enough enough room to open our luggage and in the last hotel it was so small we could not walk around the room if one of us was standing anywhere in the room. The tour guide, Neal, did a great job of moving the group and unloading and loading the bus, but waiting for the bus to unload was a test of patience at times.Show more
