“The "guide" was a 15 year old kid that doesn't know anything. I felt like babysitting him all day. He only wanted to talk about anime and things teenagers like. He said he doesn't have friends so it felt like he was using us for his own social wellbeing. I felt sorry for him. During the tour he got lost and we had to wait for him at the car. Eventually he showed up dehydrated so I got him some water. He kept staring at me and I told him to give us some space because he was constantly eves dropping. It was a bit of a nightmare. This tour…”

“The only good thing I can credit here is the undeniable beauty of local nature. Wherever we stopped, it was a real eye-pleaser. Now, as to the cons: 1) I have nothing against the guide personally, so it’s not a character attack at all. She was a nice person. However, it’s hard to call this a “guided” tour since the guide does not speak English well. Trust me, this criticism does not come from a place of entitlement, like I expect everyone in the world to know English because it’s a lingua franca.
