5.00David the tour guide was amazing! I had signed up for their walking tour, but it just so happened that I was the only one who booked the particular one, and they also only had one solo person on their golf cart tour, so David offered to let me join this version. David was very welcoming and made us feel right at home. He was so knowledgeable about the history of the city, and I came away having learned so nuch. Definitely recommended!
Fantastic use of time and money
