A visit I would make again - I recommend it, the guide is fantastic and explains everything with great enthusiasm. In spring the hours are fantastic, the light at dusk and then at night gives another view of the city that I recommend.

Magnificent tour of a magnificent city - Pablo accompanied us on a great visit to Cuenca. And he taught us a lot about history and what is not history. Highly recommended

"cool" basin - Pablo is an exceptional narrator and the walking encyclopedia of Cuenca who will not only inform you about Cuenca's extensive heritage... but will also infect you with his passion as you hear him narrate events full of history... and anecdotes. If you go to Cuenca, I would recommend that you take a tour of the medieval city “at your own pace” and after eating and resting a little… you should take the guided night tour because, in addition to the fact that you are going to pay much more attention to the places you have passed through, you will find out everything that has happened throughout the history of Cuenca, and if it is from Pablo Huerta, co-owner of “Mirando pa Cuenca”,… even better.

A different point of view of Cuenca - Magnificent visit to understand many things about the origin and evolution of the city of Cuenca and its surroundings. David, one of the Huerta owners of the agency, makes the walk enjoyable with his friendliness, closeness and knowledge. More than recommended.

Enjoy Cuenca knowing its history - We enjoyed a night tour of the city as a group with the company. The guide was very pleasant and not only told us the history and legends but also recommended many places to visit in the area. We will be back!

Culture and entertainment - Interesting and entertaining night excursion. Pablo, the guide, is from Cuenca and his father was the one who started these tours. Good knowledge and very pleasant. When we return and it is less hot, we will do the daytime. Thank you

Visita guiada teatralizada por CuencaViajes - It was Pablo who took us around medieval Cuenca, wiping away the polar cold in autumn with his wittiness, along with the lively theatrical support act resembling 'caperucita roja'. Great entertainment!
