Our guide is really good and knowledgeable. We went every places that suppose to be see. Her name is Marianna.
This one day tour was made especially for us! The owner of the tour company took us himself on the last part of the tour, as others on the tour were doing a two day tour. Very Friday, personable and accommodating. I recommend MaxiBalt tours and will use Viator in the future.
