Request Tito for your guide on this trip. As a former English teacher he is quite fluent in English and was able to provide presentation in a conversational style that was quite engaging. We were able to see all of the sites listed on this tour at a nice pace. He was quite knowledgeable regarding these sites and frequently checked with me regarding any special interests I would have on this topic. Prompt, courteous, knowledgeable, and engaging.
