Ameno y divertido. Un guía diferente. Añade otro tipo de valor a la ruta ,anécdotas , Si buscas algo menos formal y vas conniños te puede hacer el recorrido turistico bastante ameno. Todo tiene sus pros y sus contras. Si por lo contrario buscas un libro de sabiduría ,una clase de historia , fechas o un poco más de formalidad ,puede que no sea exactamente lo que estáis buscando.
