Best guide ever!
Joaquin A. Was spectacular. The tour was like having a college professor that actually cared about you. We saw everything you could in the amount of time and his depth of knowledge was impressive. He was kind, caring, and intelligent. We have avoided tours in the past and Joaquin has changed our mind. HIGHLY recommend
