Exciting tour - Angie was an exciting Guide for 2 hours of walking through the historic neighborhoods. His stories took us to the different periods of the city, photos/documents supporting on tablet. My 15-year-old and I were thrilled by the visit. We learned a lot about the city and the usage and custom. In short we recommend the Guide and the visit!

Five stars for Martina S - Martina S was so knowledgeable and engaging with our group. She even told us which angle to take pictures from to get the best photograph. I'm so glad she was our tour guide and I cannot believe she is an Emmy award firm documentary maker. How lucky we were to have her as our tour guide. I would recommend this tour to anyone and I hope you're lucky enough to have Martina S as your guide!
