Best of the tour the Laxia Guide - The best thing about the tour was the Guide (Laxia). He has shown us very nice places in New Delhi, but the best thing was his explanations. He is very prepared and speaks very good Spanish. In addition to informing us about the monuments, he has answered all the curiosities we have had (cultural, socio-political, religious...). We loved him. Both the Guide and the driver have been very kind to us.
