Awesome guide! - I have to admit this has been the greatest walking tour I have had. Gabriel was flexible enough to accommodate my last minute booking and was kind enough to meet me at the airport which I appreciate. He took me to places where I can experience as a tourist as well as a local resident. I got to pray and do some shopping. I certainly will return. Highly recommended!
