Our tour guide Sam was an exceptional tour guide—easily one of the best I’ve experienced. From the very beginning, he was warm, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable. He didn’t just take us from place to place; he brought every location to life with fascinating stories, local insights, and a genuine passion for what he does.
