The only problem wasn’t with our guide it was going through the tunnels, was rushed going through and told to hurry up. Someone in another tour was rude and argumentative with the people at the gun range, they had so much patience towards him and he acted like he did. Could of spent longer at the Baden Mountain as it was so peaceful and gorgeous”
