“Josh did a wonderful job leading our tour. Very engaging, knowledgeable, and energetic. We loved getting to talk at depth with the gallery owners and artists.

Absolutely the best tour imaginable
BY STEVE W
|
|
|
“The Mezcla de Culturas tour was the best tour we've ever had anywhere. It totally exceeded our expectations by a mile. Bobby's deep and wide historical, local, and architectural knowledge, combined with his own multi-generational family's local history (uhhhh... like over a dozen generations back in the area) was astounding. When we come back to the area -- and we will be back -- we'll be signing up for every tour he leads.”
