5.00An unusual dip in the heart of the old nice told by a passionate and exciting "executioner". A story of 1:30 in a heavy heat but a guide remained professional to the end accessible and filled with humor. A very nice experience 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 Bravo to the guide... to the man...less to the executioner 😏😊
