Great tour! - Dioga, our tour guide, was an exceptionally good tour leader! As a fisherman's son, he shared information that we would have never learned on our own! Very friendly, outgoing fella! The itinerary was really good too! The sardine tour, which had great media and interactive was a lot of fun. Enjoyed the seafood dinner at the fish market, especially trying barnacles for the first time!
