5.00Javi arrived on time to pick us up at our hotel. From the get go, was attentive, entertaining and provided background on sights we passed. Very well versed on the sight and was able to answer all questions. One of us had mobility issues and he made sure to include him in all parts of the tour, personally helping him through all access challenges. It was a great relief and service for us. Got us back to our hotel safe and sound. Wonderful tour!!!!
