Beach Excursion - I booked the city tour plus Cumbuco beach. They took us straight to the beach for 6 hours and we did not stop at any of the sights listed in the tour like the cathedral and market. The tour also said there was a horseback riding option, but there wasn’t. I was pissed at first, but had a couple beers and found horseback riding further down the beach at another place and also kite surfing. I ended up having a good time even though I was mad at first. The next day I went to the church and market on my own and pedestrian traffic was so much, there was no way a bus could have gotten down there for us to see them anyway. This is a good trip if you just want to go to the beach.
