A very special day out

Lucio was a great guide. Very funny and nothing was too much trouble. Made the journey enjoyable. The stop off for Vodka and Cheese was a nice break in the journey and then on to the cable car. Unfortunately it was very foggy so we couldn't see anything but the cafe at the top sold excellent mulled wine. They do charge you to use the toilet though. The thermal baths were w amazing, probably the best baths we've been to including Budapest and New Zealand. Very clean and well looked after. Would be happy to book with Thousand Miles again and special thanks to Dawid our driver and Lucio the tour guide.
