    The guide was very kind, informative and patient with us. We are a family of 5, among them very curious teenagers. He answered everything and gave us tips to continue to know the city.

    My only recommendation is to bring comfortable shoes and some snacks in your bag if you are hungry! Otherwise, everything was impeccable. It was a very complete tour
