Another "Best Trip" of My Life
Perfect amount of detail to know what you are doing and when as well as what to expect, wear, bring with you. Always has a great back up list (example: dining, restaurants).
Had great information and goes above and beyond and worked all the groups needs. Transportation or walking distances for sites, restaurants.
Highly recommend for any travel / trip excursion -anywhere!
