I had an absolutely fantastic tour with Polama. For non travellers like me, having everything (yes! everything) taken care of was the clincher for me. From food for the stomach to the food for the soul , they go out of their way to take care of you. They made sure the trip was fun, informative and helped build new friendships. They are a great blend of thoroughly professional and totally personal. Large hearted and fun oriented !!
