    Very good memories. If I had to put something minor: the lunch break was a bit quick, I would have preferred more time.

    It takes energy, because you're on the move most of the day. If you know that, perfect.

    Good combination of history, nature and cinema. I think the duration is adequate if you are not in a hurry.

    The weather on the mountain was changeable, so bring something waterproof. I mention this because we had some rain.
