Jordan and Sabrina (in training) were terrific. Jordan was the lead and gave great background and history for everything we did. He welcomed my many questions and was candid and forthcoming with interesting information and context about the various sites on the tour. I enjoyed his personalized (and lived) perspective. Highly recommend. Sabrina, while just in training, was super helpful and pleasant as well.They were a good team.
