“Great trip and Rebecca was an amazing tour director and cheerfully handled any issues (like cancelled ferries) with aplomb. The group we were with ranged from 40ish to 90ish and were quite diverse but interacted with each other and got to know everyone else. I'd definitely recommend this tour and especially Rebecca.
