HEAR FROM MY CLIENTS

“Our four-hour trip with Alex was fantastic. He took us to the expected sites….. He also took us to the not so familiar parts and shared knowledge that we otherwise would not have been able to experience on our own. Alex was very knowledgeable and a fun person to spend 4 hours with.”
