Mirko (who you spend the day with) is very friendly and gave us a walking tour of the city taxi ride to the heli pad, and a taxi to the boat Only con is missing the timing for the upgraded boat, if you have any upgrades tell Mirko at the start of the day as you may need to go first on the helicopter or taxi around earlier”
