Very good tour, it is very worth visiting the monastery, the center with the explanation and the history gives a better context and then closing with the viewpoints for photos was spectacular. Very good job Milagros, our guide.
Very beautiful, and preserved as is, very different from the rest of the convents. Recommendable. Monastic life is seen before and after the reform.
Marianne did a great job showing us around!!!! We ready enjoyed the tour. She also gave us really good Recommendation to local restaurants.
Thank very much for the commentary. We work to continue in the better service
