Tour with history, good food and shopping.Perfect. - Santiago imperdível. About 3 hours for a walking exploration. Our guide Miguel made an excellent presentation of the city, gave a map and suggested the route. Gave super right and there was time to taste some delicious pimples...with a white wine. 😋😋uhhhhh Then we stopped in Valencia... There I got too sad!!! ↓😁😁😁😁 City to renew enxoval...I wanted to buy everything ↓ but I couldn't .kkkkk I can't carry kkkk. The history of Valencia and its fortress is interesting. The fortress is very beautiful and the city is wonderful. Now...the bathing clothes, table and bathroom stores. Beautiful prices, quality of the products actually manufactured in Portugal. Very high quality, prices far below normal and beautiful pieces.The clothes and shoes TB were with excellent values. The trade fair tourism trip by professionals is another story, right? Our driver Manuel, caring with the passengers and very professional. Perfect for working with tourists. Now I'm praising the professionals because the guide Miguel just made the musical selection...The atmosphere is great pq he is pleasing all nationalities kkkkk so I'm capricious in the comments. It was a very nice day. I highly recommend this tour.
