Given that the guide was professional and patient, a negative note goes to the communication and coordination of the excursion. Specifically, we were disappointed and negatively surprised, the rude approach we had with the lady in charge of welcoming us. accused of having disturbed her by contacting her on her sister's phone and that we had somehow stolen that number, which was not true because that contact had been communicated to us by e-mail and strange thing that, the same lady did not know that the meeting point was was moved by mail that the same disavowed.
