Having a private tour meant I could ask many questions. My guide was very good and was interesting and attentive.

Lugares históricos maravilhosos en está excursion Sin embargo que seria necessário mas tiempo de visita en cada lugar. Si dispone de tiempo idealmente, contratar una excursion mas lenta y explicada (los lugares lo merece)
