“We loved the experience. The trip in a jeep was nice, and the off-road parts were very fun. Our guide Gil was great, he's perfectly fluent in English and his explanations were really worth it. We were very happy to learn a lot on big and small stuff about the history of the island, above and beyond the experiences that were in the trip itself (Gil would often stop and show us a few things of interest). Highly recommended.”
