I had a great time at the tour. They have an amazing crew that do an outstanding job. The tour guide did great especially for the fact that she had to do the tour in both English and Spanish. I even got them to play my own song “Milele By Barakito Rodrigue” ! I’m definitely looking forward to booking with them again when I come back to Miami !
