This is part two of my evaluation. Great tour - great guide (Mitzi)!! Thank you!<br /><br />Im writing this as I sit eating sour dough from Moege, cheese and olives from ?? One of our stops, watermelon from Marcelinos and sipping Vernouth Espinaler from our sampling! Delightful post siesta snack! <br /><br />Opportunities: <br /><br />1. During the tour we were scrambling to write down manes and locations until you said - dont worry about getting these, I have them for you at the end of the tour. So we stopped getting names and locations thinking you would provide them at the end of the tour. Your recommendations were nice but none of our stops were listed ( or most of the stops). When we desired to go back to do purchases we had nothing to go on. Fortunately we were able to piece together the route and found most of the stops.<br /><br />2. Something we are going to do in the future is bring a map and mark our stops so we can back track our experience. If you provided a map (even if we had to mark it up) with stop locations, that would be the cats meow. No tour we have been on has done this - so it would be a classy stand out for your operation. Also a good selling point for vendor recruitment. <br /><br />Just a couple of thoughts!<br />Lo Mejor
