The cultural experiences were interesting overall, especially the traditional ceremonies and village style demonstrations. I appreciated seeing how crafts are made and learning about local customs. However, the schedule felt quite packed across the different stops, and there wasn’t much downtime to just take everything in at a relaxed pace.
