Our tour guide was great! He spoke very clear English and made the tour lots of fun. He was very informative also. Unfortunately we had to leave a little early as we had other plans booked and the tour ran quite over time (not at the fault of the guide). I believe it was to do with the Palace and what time they let you enter. Maybe just keep this in mind if booking.

Our guide Enrique was very good. He was knowledgeable and friendly. We all enjoyed our tour. My only issue is with the tour company. We signed up bc the tour noted there would be a maximum number of participants at 8 people. There were over 20 people on our tour. It felt misleading.

Enrique, our guide, was brilliant, we learned a lot about the palace and the cathedral and a lot more about customs and history. We heard interesting and funny stories in addition to the dry facts. I would gladly recommend the program and our guide to everyone! Totally worth it!
