Very nice and professional driver and guide who knew many great photo spots and was very knowledgeable about the history of the places we went to and local culture. Traveling alone as a female, I never felt uncomfortable. Let the guide know if you are interested in buying some things, e.g. gemstones, and he will take you to places where you can make verified purchases.
