    The tour was a bit short, I feel that I didn't have time to appreciate everything in depth, but it was still a very pleasant experience, to repeat next year for sure.

    I would like to highlight the great work of our guide. He was very patient and passionate about his work, you could tell he loved what he was doing by the way he narrated the stories. Very good, I don't remember his name but I send him my congratulations for his incredible work.
