Show moreAlan was just awesome! He had made reservations at 3 different tapas restaurants. He made wonderful recommendations too. Drinks and food included! Alan was very knowledgeable about the city and food. I was in a mobility scooter and he picked us up and dropped us off at the hotel. The day of our tour happened to be our 39th anniversary and he even bought us a souvenir made by a local artisan! Alan made it an excellent excursion which I highly recommend!
