Good sightseeing, but concerns for foreigners - Our guide was Arturo I'm removing one star because the tour was mostly in Spanish. It was advertised as English and Spanish but id say it was 75-80% Spanish. Fortunately I actually understand Spanish fairly well, but there was one person on tour who didn't. Even with my Spanish, which is good but not fluent, there were things I missed. The guide even had to be reminded at times to talk in English. His English was good when he spoke. I'm removing another star because of how it ended. The iteneray said we would end where we started. And we ended in the middle of town. I even brought this up to the tour guide and he didn't seem to think it was a big deal. That the four was over and it was time for lunch This is practically unforgiveable. And I'm tempted to leave a lower rating just because of this. As a foreigner in a strange city, I would expect to be back where I started rather then be lost and needing to figure things out. Especially when the itinerary states you'll go back. The overall tour itself was actually pretty good. The history was entertaining and plenty of sights to see and great picture locations.
