“Excellent tour, very happy with both guides. The young lady filled us in on the fascinating history and the guy took us to all the fabulous tourist spots but away from the crowds. The catacombs, Francisco church, the plazas. Even the fruit market was something we all enjoyed and tasting the different fruit was a bonus. A leisurely lunch was a bonus, most tours are so rushed. Loved, loved, loved this tour.”
