Customer Reviews
Good look into our areas positive features
First off, the podcast is professionally done. From the music intro to outlined segments to a good rapport between the hosts, it all comes off well. Also, the speakers are well chosen. Keep the diversity of topics up. It can be more than tourism promotion.
