“This was a great tour for our family...we had 4 adults, and 4 children from ages 9 through 17. Everybody enjoyed it, even those who may not have known who the movie stars actually were! Our driver was great, and really knew lots of details about the area. I was worried at first that the vans wouldn't have as great of a view because they do have roofs, but honestly, the views were just fine. And the roofs actually were nice as far as keeping the sun in check. Overall, a really nice tour, and I certainly recommend this company.”
