He made sure we had enough time to take photos, look around, and take in the views without feeling rushed (I think having some locations closed helped as well). Nico also gave some little nuggets of details about each place and recommended areas where we could stop, eat, and get souvenirs. Having a small private tour was great and I highly recommend it.”
