This was a great tour. The tour that we initially signed up for cancelled on us last minute because they did not have enough people. This tour had some spots open. Be prepared to walk a lot. Buffet lunch was included in the price. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. He spoke three different languages because of the diversity on the tour. They picked me up from my place and had taken me back to my place.

Pick up was 2 hours late without a call, text, or email. I had to track down customer service for a 650am pick - no one answered and wasn’t responded to for almost an hour - and picked up later - I could’ve had breakfast etc - the tour itself was good - Norberto was informative

The tour guide, Norberto was absolutely fantastic. He was fun, hilarious and engaging. The tour itself was ok...I wish there were other places we could actually go in rather than just passing by...it felt like we went to more shops than places to check out but overall was pretty good!

Had a long but memorable day trip to the bustling capital. The driver and especially the tour guide were excellent and very knowledgeable. The itinerary is packed and included a good buffet lunch and plenty of opportunity to buy local produce. Highly recommended if you want to experience some of the cultural delights of this diverse country.
