AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING!!!
"I contacted Orange Donut Tours through their website inquiring about setting up a private tour program for a group of 8 people for early April. I got a prompt and very professional response from Aleksandra, who was very eager to find out about our interests, likes and dislikes, etc. In just a couple of days, she custom tailored a 4 day tour with private mini-bus and chauffeur. On paper things looked good but, to be totally honest, I was still uncertain and very anxious about what to expect, specially that I had to pay the full cost upfront. On the first day, Aleksandra greeted us at our hotel lobby. She was prompt (although we were not!), super friendly and made us feel at ease and very welcomed! The tour she designed for us created unforgettable memories for my entire family to last us a lifetime. She made us appreciate the city in a very special way! By the end of the trip, Aleksandra felt like part of the family and we missed her dearly on our last day! Thank you Aleksandra for the wonderful memories. The city, the tour and you were just AMAZING!!!!"
