Este tour la verdad no nos ha gustado demasiado, se hace mucho recorrido y las cosas que se ven no llaman mucho la atención. Yo no lo recomendo

Me cambiaron del domingo 28 al sábado 26 mayo 2023. Estamos esperando mi esposa y yo, y no se presenta la guía ni nos avisa. La llamo por teléfono tras 12 minutos de espera y me comunica que se ha suprimido. ¡Increíble!
