Great tour, ends far from where it starts - Tour guide David was awesome! He gets 6 out of 5 stars! We hit up all the spots mentioned and had a lovely boat ride to end the trip! I took off a star because your tour ends on the other side of the river from where you started, and you have to get yourself back. The navigation back isn't a problem, just inconvenient. The tour includes the price of a 1-way ticket on the sky tram which is €7. So if you want to take it back, you have to pay another €7 which is annoying since round trip is €10. It would be nice if the tour included the round trip ticket instead, or gave you the option of which one you want.
Other than that, I really enjoyed taking this walking tour to the other side of the river, and getting to coast up and down the river as well!
