The tour guide was very knowledgeable and had a lot of information. She was so helpful, kind and accomodating and incredibly knowledgeable. We learnt so much from her and she answered all our questions with such passion and enthusiasm. We really were blown away with how much she knew about the history of the amazing city. She made this moment such a special occasion, she allowed us to take our time and even took photos which we will treasure forever. I highly recommend !
