5.00This was the first booking done on Viator. I got quick replies back from my questions from Bronny. We were on a cruise and this was our first port stop, they made it incredibly easy to know where to be and when the bus would be leaving. The tour guide was nice and informative. If you want to hear better, try and sit towards the front. Got to see some gems: World's steepest street,(despite OZ trying to steal the title) beautiful overlook of the city, stopped at the botanical garden which was one of the nicest ones I've been to. It's different and I love the setup. Lastly, the incredible Railroad station. What a beautiful marvel.
