our guide Aiko really knew their stuff and the cathedral square at golden hour was the highlight. Over easter break so it wasnt too busy. Handy if youre short on time, and a tidy 3 hour loop, and used it for our summer trip. Would book again no question, loved it

our guide Ana couldnt do enough for us and the cathedral square at golden hour was the highlight. Mid-week so it was quiet so it wasnt too busy. Fine even with my dodgy knee, and hit 8 landmarks, and perfect for first-timers, and perfect intro on day one. Would book again no question.
