Very nice afternoon city tour! Extremely nice and knowledgeable tour guide. He offered us great service. I highly recommend using this service.
Value for money and wonderful way to see the key areas of the City in the afternoon! Would recommend to all especially less mobile tourists – the private tour was worth it so we could go our own pace and avoid the midday heat.
Tony was an excellent tour leader and gave very enthusiastic and detailed commentary at our varied stops. We saw so much in the four hours. Perfect timing to end the day exploring the city. I would definitely recommend this afternoon tour!
We had a fantastic afternoon with Qui – he was a great guide. We were never rushed and had a very interesting time finishing with recommendations for dinner spots.
Our tour guide Tony was so knowledgeable and flexible! The afternoon timing was perfect – cooler temperature and fewer crowds. Some places we had already been so he suggested new places for us instead!
