We joined from another city and were a little unsure about coordination, especially with three college friends. The car was neat and the AC worked well on the warmer parts of the trip. We kept one evening light and just walked around nearby instead of adding more sightseeing. We returned with good memories, which was what we wanted. One thing I liked was that nobody objected when we asked to slow the day down a little.
I chose this itinerary because my husband and our daughter were joining and I did not want an overpacked schedule. The day started on time and the route was handled sensibly. A short WhatsApp update every evening would make the next morning easier.

Our group was my cousins, so timing and breaks mattered more than covering extra places. We did not need constant phone support, but when we asked something we got a reply. The route was practical and the longer drives had sensible breaks. One small suggestion: give slightly clearer information when traffic or weather changes the plan.
After a long gap, we finally managed a short break with my wife. The driving felt safe and there was no unnecessary speeding. The trip did what it was supposed to do without unnecessary hassle.
