    Travelled with family

    Our tour group was very small due to the season, very informative, great opportunity to see the sights and have a walk around the city with great information about what we were seeing, and having the opportunity to ask questions

    Es war sehr interessant, man konnte aber nicht immer alles verstehen weil die Aussprache undeutlich war.
