Ester is the perfect guide to introduce you to Koscie. She is friendly and very knowledgeable about her city. We were out with her for about 3 hours and got some great tips on where to visit later and where to eat and drink. I know that she has saved us a lot of time wandering aimlessly as now we know exactly how to use our time here wisely tomorrow. Highly recommended!

We throughouly enjoyed this fantastic tour! Ester was very friendly, engaging, enthusiastic and informative. The topics and places of interest were varied, from medieval to recent history and present, across nationalities and cultures, from researched facts to fun and mysterious legends. And all the info was easy to consume and remember! My partner and I are both from Slovakia, so we weren't sure if there was much more we could learn about a Slovak city, but we absolutely did and we have a whole new appreciation for the beautiful Kosice. Thank you, Ester!
