Rafaela (tour guide) was great at her job. She gave us detailed information about the sights we were seeing and also about the island as a whole. She also didn't rush us during the stops and gave us ample time to look around.

I had a highly disappointing experience with this tour company. My booking was rescheduled due to a lack of registrants, which was inconvenient and messed up my plans. When the tour finally happened, I discovered that the cheese tasting, which was included when I booked, was not part of the program any more. This was a significant letdown as it was one of the main reasons I chose this tour. Additionally, the company charged for airport pickup, despite advertising it as free for group members. This level of miscommunication and lack of transparency is unacceptable, even if the tour itself was great. I do not recommend this tour company to anyone.
