    We needed a last minute 3 hour tour with minimal easy walking. Néstor had a cancellation and was available.

It was one of our favorite tours because of Néstor.

    Thanks very much Mr. James. It was a great feeling to give a tour to a Gabriel García Márquez reader. Remember my favorite book of him called "Notice of a kidnapping". Also the journalistic work is amazing. It will always be a pleasure. Cordially, Néstor
