We had such a wonderful experience with Kenny yesterday. We had a small quaint group of four for the tour and it allowed for some wonderful interaction and mutual sharing of information. Kenny was very professional and courteous. I booked the tour directly through his website kbtours.com. I strongly recommend him. We actually wished that we had more time in the tour. He was a wealth of information.

Very interesting and informative
