Attentive, friendly and knowledgeable guide - Very pleasant and productive visit. We had already been years ago, but this visit has been much more extensive and in addition to the cathedral, we have visited part of the old town. All right.

Poorly designed and repetitive tour - We were underwhelmed by this tour as it was a poor use of time and quite repetitive. The tour was broken up into a tour of the museum, a tour of the cathedral, close to an hour of wasted alone time and then a tour of the old town which was barely 10 minutes since our tour guide just repeated the same information and stories she had told during the museum and cathedral tour portion. We could’ve saved ourselves money and time by doing it ourselves and would have seen more.

Depends what you are looking for - The tour guide had a really strong spanish accent which made it hard to follow. The information given were either personal anecdotes or really detailled historical information. For us the in between level would have been helpful.
