    Travelled as a couple

    Es war eine wirklich tolle und informative Tour. Wir hatten viel Spaß mit Viktor, dem Tourguide. Er hat sich um alles und jeden gekümmert. Der Canyon ist sehr beeindruckend und wir hatten genug Zeit, um alles zu sehen und ein paar schöne Fotos zu machen. Das Mittagessen und die Verkostung waren ebenfalls sehr lecker und interessant. Insgesamt können wir die Tour weiterempfehlen.

    Je ziet de mooiste plekjes. De gidsen kunnen veel vertellen over de geschiedenis van de plekken die je ziet. Ook zit er een tasting en lunch bij. De lunch was aan de kleine kant. Verder was het super leuk en is het ook zeker aan te raden! Het is wel handig als je goed te been bent, aangezien je naar de grotten moet lopen/klimmen.
