The tour was not described at all, so I suppose it's difficult to fault a non-description.

This tour only listed the locations the trip would go and the time the allotted. So with that in mind - the tour met its goal. However, was it really a tour? I think not. The driver took us to all three sites, dropped us off in each spot, gave us map (well, not each of us - every third one so we had to stay in groups) and as if on a scavenger hunt - suggested we go to several spots he mentioned, gave us directions to meet him back at a carpark to move on to the next site. So, it was NOT a tour, but more just transportation to each site and about 30 min in each place. No commentary from guide unless you asked a question.
