Highly recommended
We had a wonderful day! Using a private tour – really just your group – makes sense, especially if you’re a family with young kids. We had total freedom to take a break, change our itinerary, and take our lunch at leisure. Abdou, our guide, was knowledgeable, patient, and kind. He arranged for the guide to take us on the hike and even lent us cash when we fell short (for lunch, at the village)Thanks
