I took this tour with my wife and my cousin who lives in the area. Our guide was Vince and we thought he was exceptional. He animated his stories of the history of the area and was exceptionally entertaining. I found that the time of the tour passed very quickly. Vince gave our group of 6 ample opportunities to sit and listen, so there were plenty of breaks in walking. Vince held up historic photos in front of their current location which provided a great reference point for his stories. If you love, or even just like history, I highly recommend this tour. This is especially true if you love stories of the "Old West." My only suggestion to Vince would be to remind him that some of the restaurants he recommends are closed on Mondays. But plenty others were open.

Misty had great historical information and images to share, told in an animated and enthusiastic way. My only critique is that I would have liked a little more walking and a little less standing. For example, we could've walked to the statue of Don Fransisco Cuervo y Valdes, and worked our way down, instead of just staying in the square. I learned a lot and over all it was a fun experience!
