Everything went very well, but what I would highlight is that they are not massive groups like others companies that you see visiting the city. This helps to understand everything much better. Thank you very much!

My family and I thought that it would be a bit of a pain for so many hours, and with the children ... but the truth is that it was very enjoyable and interesting. The guide was sensational!
