5.00I did this tour a year ago now (sorry to be so slow in reviewing) and I still think and talk about it. I am by now a (self-declared) city walking tour aficionado, and this one was by far the best for recommendations of things to do / places to eat in the city, several of which I followed and had some fabulous experiences I wouldn't have done otherwise. The tour itself was excellent - our guide was an engaging storyteller and I learned so much. There was a decent amount of walking (which I like) and I felt we covered a lot of ground. I highly recommend this.
Wonderful!
