Very interesting tour - Today I did the salsa and art tour with Hans, I had made a reservation for the historical tour but it could not be done because it was a holiday and many sites would be closed and Hans adapted giving us historical information as well. It was very interesting, thank you!

Wonderful experience learning about this beautiful city and its social and artistic magic - Wonderful experience discovering the magic of this fantastic city! The guide was very kind and pleasant, close and flexible to all our questions. I loved that there was room for political content and social resistance... The historical journey was very detailed and deep. I recommend 100%!
