We had the best time with our tour guide on our tour. She has great energy and pointed out highlights big and small so we really felt like we didn't miss a thing. She always gave us the chance to ask questions, stop to take photos, use the restrooms and she just really ensured that we had a good time. Thank you so much!!!

Our guide contributed enormously to our newfound love of tour. He not only explained in detail and in an interesting way about everything, but he also provided us with incredibly useful information about the rest of the city and it's many points of interest. We are definitely returning with my son and his family next year.
