1.00You can get this tour for free. It is a free tour, but Viator sells it. When we got there, there was a sign that said free tour.
Info heavy not much walking - good if that’s what you are looking for.

3.00Our guide, Joha, was incredibly nice and knowledgeable but we were expecting more walking, exploring, and details on the buildings, and architecture. We didn’t get too many steps in but he did relay the history of the area. The city in itself has a lot of cool old buildings with interesting history. We ended up looking up the history in some of these places on our own afterwards. Maybe Europeans don’t find such things as interesting because they are constantly surrounded by history, but being a North American I was expecting a little more.
Knowledgeable and friendly

5.00We had a great tour with Maurits our guide who was very knowledgeable about the history but also had some local anecdotes with a great sense of humour, he looked after the group making sure everyone was ok and keeping up. The weather wasn't great but he had some spare umbrellas just in case. And there were many opportunities to take pictures! Make sure you have cash ready in case you want to tip, which the guide does not ask for or expect, but you will probably want to!
We had a great tour with...
