Glauco was our guide. I cannot say enough about him! Not only did he give an awesome tour, he went above and beyond. As he had the time, he walked us all over and kept showing us things after the tour ended. We visited his favorite local shops and took us to the tram station and help us buy tickets so we would make our next tour. Amazing, kind and so much fun. Glauco is the best!!!!!!!!!!!
