This excursions itself was awesome. However, the meeting location is incorrect and we almost missed the excursion tour. In addition, it is outside and it rained.

Wonderful experience. Useful, entertaining and fun. In addition to technological, the best way to know the history of the city as you walk through its streets. We did the tour coworkers from Romania and enjoyed it a lot and I, being from Madrid as well.
