El día 10 de mayo hicimos el tours del Libertador Gral San Martin al Cerro de la Gloria con Facundo, nuestro guía. Debo decir que fue excelente y nos sorprendió desde el inicio hasta el final con cada historia del Gral Ssn Martín, del ejercicio libertador y de los detalles de este impresionante monumento, una verdadera obra de arte. Facundo es el auténtico responsable de hacernos sentir parte de la historia. En su relato casi como poseído por el espíritu San Martiniano, transmite con sentimiento y emoción cada una de las historias haciéndote compenetrar con ellas y entender la magnitud de semejante proeza humana. Nos llevamos un excelente recuerdo de este paseo como en un viaje , desde adentro, por la historia de nuestra independencia, de la mano de una persona que con tan solo 22 años te hace sentir la patria desde otro lugar. Un joven que sin dudas es un ejemplo para muchos y debería ser tomado muy en cuenta por las autoridades de turismo para aprovechar tanto potencial y ayudarlo con recursos económicos, darle el respaldo y reconocimiento que sin duda se merece. Recomiendo 100% este tours, solo si lo hacen con Facundo No creo que ningún otro pueda superarlo Gracias Facundo Francisco y Patricia
