5.00On April 18, we went to three marriages to spend the day and eat in Alcalá de Henares and in the afternoon we had a route with Rodrigo to tour the city. A full day, the afternoon was spent with Rodrigo knowing Alcalá was very interesting, knowing the history, details, anezdotas and everything you don't learn in the books. With Rodrigo, the two hours or so of the visit passed very quickly, because it is not a boring monologue that at half an hour you want to run out, but it is a conversation between everyone, you interact with him in every corner. Thank God all the tour guides are very prepared, the difference is in the way you transmit your knowledge and Rodrigo is very good, he is an actor. Highly recommended.
