Overall a good tour. The sights were absolutely amazing! There are several other stops not mentioned in the description that were interesting too. We got to see the whiskey village, native arts and craft. The tour guide was great too. Only downfall was him taking unexpected pictures of us and sharing with a friend who his who ended sending the pictures back to us as he was our guide from a previous day. That felt a bit odd..
