“Our tour guide was Peter who was fantastic. The tour ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. Peter was incredibly knowledgeable and brought the city’s history to life with engaging stories, local insights, and a great sense of humour. Peter explained everything clearly while also pointing out hidden spots and details we would’ve completely missed on our own, including amazing spots for the perfect pictures! The pace was perfect, questions were always welcomed, and it never felt rushed or boring. We highly recommend this tour, especially with Peter as your tour guide.”
