“A wonderful adventure. Saw three interesting places. Lorna the guide was funny and enthusiastic and knowledgeable. Our driver (Safick?) was funny and pleasant too. They played off each other well. Left and returned on time, clean, modern bus. I wish the castle tickets had been included- it would’ve saved time. Lunch place was disappointing. We could only get soup (it was good) because they couldn’t produce the food fast enough to feed everyone before we had to leave. Not enough people working there, perhaps?”
