Ignacio and Gaby made the tour extremely pleasant. They both very professional and I can see they went out their way to meet the needs of every customer. It’s noted that Gaby is very experienced and that Ignacio learned well from her she was his mentor. Flor, another guide was extremely helpful as well. They should be recognized by this company.
Our family enjoyed the tour very much. We visited a lot of interesting places . Although there were instances that the group we have joined in the bus were not so good and nasty, but that’s beyond the control of the tour operator.
