Nos gustó bastante, con un par de detalles menores. Por el precio que pagamos, la verdad que rinde muchísimo. Volvimos a Wellington al día siguiente por nuestra cuenta. El guía de turismo en Inglés vale por sí solo. En hora pico el tránsito estira bastante el recorrido. Recomendable en general.

Contratamos esto casi sin expectativas y terminó siendo lo más lindo del viaje. Por el precio que pagamos, la verdad que rinde muchísimo. El tiempo en Ngawi fue suficiente para disfrutarlo de verdad.

Boa opção
Boa experiência, com um detalhe que vale saber antes. Pagamos bem menos que outras opções e a experiência foi igualmente boa. Reserve tempo para Ngawi, vale a pena. O voucher demorou algumas horas para chegar e fiquei nervoso. Nada grave, mas vale saber antes de reservar.

Una experiencia hermosa
Simplemente perfecto. Terminar en Martinborough fue el mejor cierre. El lugar en Ngawi tiene una ambientación hermosa. Nos atendieron por WhatsApp para una duda y respondieron en minutos. No lo dudes, reservalo.

Muito bom
Gostamos bastante, com alguns detalhes pequenos. Comparando com fazer por conta própria, compensa. Adoramos a região de Ngawi. É uma forma bem prática de se localizar na cidade no primeiro dia. Faltou um mapa impresso, tudo dependia do celular. Recomendo mesmo assim.

Vale muchísimo más de lo que cuesta. Aprovechamos guía de turismo en Inglés más de lo que pensábamos. El grupo no era enorme, lo que hizo todo más cómodo. Cinco estrellas bien merecidas.
