We were a group of 5 and our guide Sr. Jose Antonio was very knowledgeable and gave us in depth historical information about Zaragoza around the main city center quarter. Initially we had booked for a 4-hour tour that had to be shortened to a 2-hour. Sr. Jose Antonio did a great summary within the 2-hour we had, and our agency was flexible and proactive in offering other options as well as refunding the reduced hours. Nevertheless, wish we could have more time. Zaragoza is indeed an interesting city to visit. Definitely recommend.
