It seemed poor to me. We did not enter any historical place. We wasted about 1 hour going to Villa San Lorenzo to a normal gastronomic place.

Booked this bilingual tour to learn more about the city. As I was the only English speaker who booked on at the time, the guide I had was Spanish only (for everyone else). With no option of withdrawal, I sat in a car for 4 hours and got driven around not having a clue what was happening and just didn't have a great time at all. Also the ad said 3 hours, so that last hour dragged on, as I was well done with the tour by then. I know a little bit of Spanish, but not enough for a fast talking guided tour. Giving it 2 and not 1 because it must of been a good tour guide, everyone else was laughing and having a great time. Next time I'll just download some facts and go for a longer walk myself
