Memories, knowledge, friendship
Jason was our guide and he was excellent. This was a private tour, which I highly recommend when traveling a distance from the city! Jason was knowledgeable, funny, and experienced as a driver as he explained history, peoples, and events. Jason was a wealth of facts and interesting stories. We all felt that we came from the day w/great memories, learning, and made a friend. We highly recommend Jason as your safe driver!
