This tour was awesome. It was just our family and felt like a really personalized experience. Our guide genuinely seemed excited and very knowledgeable about the city. We were able to ask a lot of questions and see so many interesting things while also learning about the history. We got to taste a few delicious foods as well. It was time well spent. I highly recommend.
