    It was very interesting and entertaining. Vicente, our guide, gave us a perfect tour just for the two of us. He explained the history and anecdotes of the city and its customs. His recommendation for food was fantastic!

    It was good, but we couldn't take advantage of it much because we had a baby with us and the group was on its own.
