5.00The free walking tour was by far the best tour, we also did the boat and the bus. Andy, our guide was excellent. A very informative, entertaining and honest history lesson. A very comfortable pace and very few steps made the two hours go quickly. Definitely worth a generous tip!
Edi is Wonderful!
