I have done multiple tours. Peanut has been the best tour guide out of all of them. She has been amazing, so kind to everyone, made sure everyone felt safe and welcome, would always answer any questions we had, would help us if we had any problems, she made sure she knew what we were doing on a day to day basis. She made the tour and experience so much better because of the way she was.
