“Fluent English , smashing sense of humour and full of history knowledges ”

I am so glad I found him on here. We were litte nervous how we can like each other for three whole days beforehand .We knew his English was great and sense that he is nice guy from watching video. But reality was He is super kind polite and respectful funny ahonest and he has a historian professor knowledge ! The reason we wanted to have a license guid was because visiting all historical place without any explanation doesn’t mean anything to us . So that is that. His deep knowledge of history and politics make our temples visit or rocks more interesting and we can imagine what actually happened there . his car is super comfortable and clean ! He drives with care ( not crazy manner) and can answered all questions we asked ( couldn’t get enough questions!) We laughed together and hike togther He is neat and looking smart than we often are ! We can not thanks enough to him for his kindness and care We hope he likes us much as we do ( smile ) and continue our friendship. We highly utterly recommend him to all friends who are coming to this beautiful country.
