Hicimos el tour con Cris, una guía excepcional. Estoy acostumbrado a realizar este tipo de tour por todas las ciudades por las que viajo y nunca me había tocado una guía tan completa, gran comunicadora, con carisma y muy bien preparada. Ha hecho que toda la ruta que hemos visto sea entretenida con gran cantidad de datos y curiosidades de la zona. Me ha encantado Translate this opinion into English.

Nos ha encantado, sobre todo, Cristina, la guía, lo ha hecho genial. El recorrido me ha parecido un poco corto, eso sí, se desenvuelve en 4 calles solamente. Estaría mejor que tocaran más partes des ciudad. Por lo demás excelente, sobre todo, repito, por la guía que lo ha hecho fantástico. Translate this opinion into English.

We loved it, especially Cristina, the guide; she was brilliant. The tour seemed a bit short, though, covering only four streets. It would have been better if they covered more parts of the city. Otherwise, it was excellent, especially, I repeat, thanks to the guide, who made it fantastic. Opinion translated. Show original.
