3.00It was nice to learn about the places on the tour but very disappointed in the tour guide. She definitely knew her stuff but did not arrive at the meeting spot before the tour time ( so the whole group was frantically looking for her), she was not at all engaging with the group. Mostly looked at the ground or past us when sharing the history. A four hour tour is long with a non engaging guide leading the group.

5.00there was one very nice break to get a bite to eat and coffee, tea or drink after doing the Abby. It was an in depth detailed tour of the inside of Abby. It was very helpful that this tour included the tickets and the reserve time to get in with the guide. It covered so many areas while walking. And Natasha was full very interesting stories be prepared to cover a lot of ground, but at a comfortable pace. Make sure to wear comfortable walking shoes and you’ll have a great experience.
