We saw a lot, had a great group representing 6 countries, something I always enjoy. Super great for 20, 30 year olds which was our group except us. Might caution 50 on up that roads are very bumpy for people with bad backs. I loved it & would recommend it to friends that I know love getting into the culture as a priority, the accommodations are rustic but adequate!”
