It was amazing! Beautiful and stunning scenery. We are happy that we took the tour since we saw so much more than by driving ourselves. Larry was a fantastic guide and so full of knowledge. We learned a lot from him. We also loved hearing and watching the flute players. Good job Larry!

Excellent our guide Cormashina was really lovely and gave us a brilliant insight into the history of the Native Americans. Taken off the main circuit and saw some extra monuments.
