Customer Review of Half-Day Lajes Air Base Historic Sightseeing Tour

Five Stars—Excellent Tour and driver/guide

The road took us into the island where

we came across Victory. He held

a pointed staff and left footprints long

and vehicular. Victory spoke very good

English and heaved like stones the facts

and figures of progress as we posed

our reservations at each stop. We found

the wire fence and learned so much of containment

and Victory smiled and we all felt very

good watching the fence with him.
