The possibility that it was in Spanish, the girl was French but she spoke Spanish very well and was very entertaining. The bad thing is that there are always so many people.... but we loved it. I had seen that on Tuesdays they did the show of the fountains with music, we were waiting and when we saw that it didn't start we asked and they told us that it was for the weekends, in short, it was very good.

Excellent tour, I highly recommend it. The guide was incredible, he gave us lots of interesting facts and was very knowledgeable. The Spanish was easy to understand even for those who didn't speak it, like my mother and daughter! It was one of the tours I enjoyed the most! The gardens are incredible! Get ready to walk! And if possible, set aside money to rent the strollers!
