This was the best tour I have ever been on! Rodrigo was a passionate and knowledgeable guide. He took us to all of the best spots and tailored the tour to our preferences. In addition to being a brilliant guide, he works as a full time famer on his family’s farm. It was very unique to get the cultural insights from a local who loves his country to much. It was an unforgettable day and I am so grateful to him for making our visit special.
