A great guide for the area - What a knowledgeable and professional guide. Jonas was informative and adapted our trip to allow us to see what we wanted to see. We spent the day traveling around the area and around every corner was a different view and landscape. Nothing was too much trouble and we never felt rushed on our day trip. If you are in the area and are looking to see as much as you can in a short time Jonas is your man! Thanks again for a great day out.
