A family man, attentive and kind, with extensive experience in his work, who will take you to all the places of interest and stay with you until you return to your hotel. He’ll take you to local shops where you can compare jewelry, souvenirs, spices, clothing, and herbal products, and he’ll help you get the best prices.

You’ll definitely feel safe with him.

Thank you so much, Pali!
