Creator's Key Takeaways

i was on five different tour buses in greece and none of them would have what you call air conditioning

we were piling on the sunscreen it was hot and sweaty and we were barely barely moving in in the bus

i'm gonna recommend uber and i don't normally do that you know i everybody has their own choice i take taxis all the time so yeah but i just i could not believe that they did that

in malta not gonna recommend the hop-on hop-up buses at all take those taxis to the destination pay the taxi to wait for you
