The tour was very well guided - just the right amount of well prepared information, stories and jokes. Probably the best guide of all tours I have visisted :)

Though m English is not too bad, I could not understand what the guide was talking about. I have no doubt about the quality of his vokabulary, but his pronounciation was so bad, that I nor my husband were able to follow his explanations. Also surrounding noise was nor very helpful. So we decided to quit the tour right at the beginning. Sorry, but this was a really disappointing experiene.
