정말 기분 좋았던 여행♡

100점 만점에 100점이 모자란 가이드 Tommy에게 감사드려요. 방문한 여행지도 참 좋았지만 가이드 Tommy 가 우리의 여행을 더 풍성하고 즐겁게 해주었어요. 누구와 여행하냐에 따라 여행의 만족도가 달라지는걸 느끼게 해줬어요. 잠시도 쉬지않고여행객들을 배려해주고, 가이드해주고, 재미난 설명을 해주고, 모든걸 준비하고 함께해주었어요. 고맙다고 다시 한번 말하고 싶어 후기를 남깁니다. 그리고 방문한 여행지는 말할것도 없이 좋았구요~^^

좋은 여행이었어요!

원래 가려고 예약한 날짜에 인원이 부족해서 취소되어 다른 날 가게 됐는데 예약변경 도와준 직원들도 친절하게 잘 처리해 주었고 여행 일정에 함께 했던 직원들도 정말 최고였어요. 원하는 장소에 픽업오고 다시 안전하게 집까지 드랍해줘서 편안하고 즐겁게 파로넬라파크 구경 잘 하고 왔습니다.
