Cristin was our bus driver and tour guide. She was certainly knowledgeable and helped us get great pictures of spots, we even stopped for food along the way and on the way back. Amazing trip and the tour guide made it even better!

First of all, the bus was clean. Our tour guide and driver, Debbie, was a delight. Not only was she a good driver (I felt very safe), she was very informative, nice, and a very lovely person. She kept us well informed of the itinerary/schedule, what to do and not to do (so we didn’t miss the bus), ensured the bus temperature was comfortable, provided us with bottled water, and made sure we had a positive experience. She stopped at many breathtaking views. I had a wonderful time and loved the tour! Thank you, Debbie!
