Everything went very well, the guide, stack, Perfect, very friendly and enjoyable! And driver Augustine, also very friendly. Good thing we took the tour, you learn a lot. The tour has been surprising, whether we like it or not we are happy with what happened, it is history and you learn from it. It's been super interesting! I think we should know her better so we don't forget. Thank you very much Pilar.
