Deben saber que el desayuno y la comida no entran en el precio pero que te llevan a un restaurante muy bien de precio (35s/ el menú de primero y principal). El guia muy amable y pendiente a todo el grupo.

我預定的是一個可以預訂座位的兩日遊 但是實際到現場的時候發現 這個兩日遊算了好多段 我們不是一台巴士,從頭到尾 到了某些城市會有新的人上車,然後我預定的座位竟然被預訂走了 在網站上根本沒有辦法每一段都預定 而且最討厭的是,在一些地方上車的時間很混亂 因為有不同的目的地的旅行者 然後導遊又講解的不是很清楚 根本像是我自己買巴士車票去旅遊 我建議想要買這個兩日遊的人要思考一下是不是自己去買巴士就好
