Eduardo was great! By mistake, I booked a tour in Spanish. While I do speak some Spanish, there is a lot that I don’t understand. However, since I was the only participant, Eduardo spoke very slowly and clearly for me and I learned a lot about Punta Arenas as well as more Spanish. So I was very happy that I booked a tour in Spanish by mistake. Eduardo was very kind, patient and interesting. I had a wonderful half-day with him!
