Summary: Punctual to start, then to top that , the minibus was very well outfitted for our group of eight. All this made for a most comfortable ride and thus were able to absorb the wealth of information Kostas was eagerly disseminating. He knew all the short cuts and made sure we arrived on time to see the elaborate changing of the guards. A show not to be missed ! Call Kostas when you are in Town his team will pamper you.
