“Sua was our guide and she was so great. very personable and eager to share her culture with us. we walked through her fields, she explained her farming practices, I even got to try a little. it felt very special to be able to be so near to her home. the tour does not take you to other more touristy cities. for me, that was a major plus, this experience was much more intimate. I am so grateful I was able to squeeze this tour into my schedule”
