Great tour guide Roberto. Sadly too much queuing anyway despite pre-booking but gues were moving quite quickly. One thing we were very disappointed with was that we bought tickets which included breakfast and we never got one!!! So the 4 of us didn't have anything to drink or eat till 12:00 and we were up at 6:30!!! One was a 7 year old child. We've been told after that the prepaid breakfast was apparently the kiosk where were got our headsets from before going on the tour. Sadly the lady never told us. There's was more of us in the group and at this point I feel like the company mis-led us and should refund us the breakfast.
