Carlos exceeded our expectations.

Shirley_B, Jul 2025
It was amazing. Carlos exceeded our expectations. He was extremely knowledge about the history of the sites. After showing the sites within the city, he went to the communities on the perimeter near the river and ocean. He advised us on eateries and how to choice a restaurant as we walk around. We went to churches, the train depot, among other sites. He talked about how to choice Port wine and where it is made. The tour was jam packed with information and no moment was wasted. Carlos was kind and respectful. Thank you for sharing your knowledge , Carlos.
