    Ricardo was one of the best guides I've ever had. Although he wasn't a typical guide (i.e., one who just bombards you with historical facts), he was very engaging. We saw the city in a different light, not only historically, but also through its customs and traditions. Highly recommended and definitely worth repeating.

Its magnificent cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, stands as a testament to its glorious past and architectural excellence.
