She is the most effective organizer, facilitator, and communicator. She always responded quickly to my questions, no matter what time of day or night. As a result, I had an excellent tour, complete with a lovely air-conditioned private cabin overlooking the bay. The visits to the caves from the boat were excellent and nicely arranged. The tour guide was educated and followed the schedule. The cuisine was amazing and authentic. The early morning on the upper deck was magical, with its unique land/seascape, birdcalls, and silence.
