Joaquin was an excellent guide. Helpful, eloquent, knowledgeable and humorous. We had quite an unusually big group of about 30 people and he still managed to engage us. History buffs would love it! He helped to synthesis pieces of information and tie it up into an easily comprehensible story. Well done!
