I thoroughly enjoyed my day with Pedro, who treated me as a friend and not just another tourist. His deep knowledge of history, sense of humor, surprises pointing out hidden treasures, acceptance of my multitude of questions, and movement at my pace made this a very enriching experience. Thank you, Pedro!
