Diego fue un guía como el que no hemos tenido nunca. Hizo de la actividad “un paseo entre amigos” y a pesar de ser un grupo pequeño, todo fluyó un montón. Nos explicó muchísima historia sin hacerse nada pesado y se ha notado que no es un guión que se ha estudiado, sino un paseo en el que nos habla sobre un tema que le apasiona. Sabe muchísimo acerca de lo que habla y demuestra que es una persona muy culta e inteligente, a la par que ingeniosa. Un abrazo desde Bilbo. Translate this opinion into English.

Diego was a guide unlike any we've ever had. He made the activity feel like "a stroll among friends," and despite being a small group, everything flowed beautifully. He explained a wealth of history without ever becoming tedious, and it was clear that it wasn't a rehearsed script, but rather a spontaneous walk where he spoke about a topic he's passionate about. He knows a great deal about what he's talking about and demonstrates that he's a very cultured and intelligent person, as well as witty. Warm regards from Bilbao. Opinion translated. Show original.

Fernanada was exceptional! She is so charismatic, funny, and candid in a way that feels so refreshing and natural especially given that there is a breadth of information that is being relayed to us. (Typically that sort of thing can fall flat or feel overstimulating, but she kept our attention) 10/10 would recommend!

Matteo è molto bravo, ci ha fatto appassionare alla storia portoghese. Ci ha raccontato delle storie bellissime e non scontate. La cosa che ho apprezzato di più è stata la sua attenzione verso il gruppo, si è sempre sincerato che il sole non desse fastidio, che i ragazzini fossero coinvolti, che nessuno rimanesse indietro. Bellissimo tour, e grazie per la lettura finale di Camoes. Torneremo sicuramente Translate this opinion into English.

Abbiamo avuto la possibilità di partecipare a questo tour molto bello con una guida italiana di nome Martina, esperienza eccellente ma la guida lo è stata ancora di più, ha saputo metterci a nostro agio e ci ha mostrato tutto quello da vedere con una descrizione molto dettagliata del tutto. Siamo molto soddisfatti speriamo di ritrovarla in un prossimo tour. Se ci fosse la possibilità di dare oltre le 5 stelle lo farei tranquillamente. Translate this opinion into English.

La verdad que Rafa fue super ameno y divertido con esos "parecidos" de la historia para que todos nos echasemos un rato divertido y cultural. Desafortunadamente no llueve a gusto de todos,ya que hubo un "malestar" con alguien que él todo un profesional pudo resolver con educación,profesionalidad y amabilidad que le caracteriza Gracias por enseñarnos y ver el tour de la forma tan divertida y amena que lo hiciste, te deseo lo mejor y que sigas siendo como eres, un placer coincidir Translate this opinion into English.

Rafa was truly engaging and entertaining with those historical parallels, ensuring we all had a fun and educational time. Unfortunately, you can't please everyone, as there was a minor issue with someone, which he, being the true professional he is, resolved with his characteristic politeness, professionalism, and kindness. Thank you for teaching us and making the tour so fun and enjoyable. I wish you all the best and hope you continue being yourself; it was a pleasure meeting you. Opinion translated. Show original.
