our guide Aiko had so many stories and the cathedral square at golden hour was the highlight. Used it for our summer trip so it wasnt too busy. Great if youre not super fit, and perfect intro on day one, and hit 8 landmarks. Would book again no question.

our guide Ingrid couldnt do enough for us and the rooftop viewpoint was the highlight ... Used it for our summer trip so it wasnt too busy. Miles ahead of a similar city tour we tried in marrakech, and fine even with my dodgy knee, and a tidy 3 hour loop. Would book again no question.
