Tours are conducted with A/C recent model vehicles. I use a late model A/C Mercedes Vans for small groups of over 2 people. In the case of more travelers, I can create a customized tour and use Mercedes Minibus buses for larger groups. These vehicles are well equipped and have comfortable seats for passengers.
