Fabio was a fabulous tour guide. He was very flexible and he found such gems for us to visit. We saw Los cerros de San Juan the oldest winery in the country, Museo de cars and the pencil museum. He had a wealth of knowledge about the history of the city and the country. I would highly recommend him.
