Guía muy agradable y con un elevado conocimiento de la ciudad. Y en general de muchas cosas por conversaciones que tuvimos con él. Cualquier pregunta que se le hizo la respondió con soltura y gran conocimiento. Incluso hablamos sobre las ciudades de España y se notaba su conocimiento. A pesar del día tan horrible que hizo de lluvia, hicimos el tour completo, con puntualidad y hasta el final. Buen profesional. Recomendable
