“Maravilla - We did the tour of Valparaiso and Viña del Mar. Oh, great. Alex is, without any doubt, a PROFESSIONAL in capital letters. I have worked alongside many guides and very few denote as much passion for his work as he does. It connects with the visitor and conveys much more than all their wisdom, energy and feeling. My visit to Valparaiso, unforgettable.” (Reviewed on 2025-02-16)
