The tour guide was very flexible since our van was blocked entry to the city square where we were supposed to meet. He gave us a tour of some main sites and a detailed tour of the market. Very friendly and spoke English well. You walk the whole 2 hours, so wear comfy shoes!

We loved this tour! I would recommend doing this first when you arrive in SMA. We got a good feel for the layout of the town so the next several days were easy to get around. We learned so much and had fun along the way.
