Our guide was knowledgeable and accommodating, pointing out notable attractions in the area and even sharing fresh oranges with us from his own garden! The horseback riding tour was beautiful and the food was INCREDIBLE! The owner of the farmhouse and restaurant was so welcoming and everyone we encountered was so kind!”
