The tour was very good. The only drawback was that the coordinator who was at the exit did not recognize the purchase I made in the app and did not offer any help. It was a tour guide from another company who helped me and gave explanations to the bus coordinator so that he would let us get on. With this we lost the first hour of the trip. Once on the bus, everything was to enjoy.
