Ester was great - one of the best guides I had so far: fun and extremely knowledgeable. It was easy to see how passionate she is about history and about Kosice. The tour included loads of stuff: history, where to eat, traditions etc. We were lucky enough to also witness a few weddings on our way.
Definitely recommend (bring walking shoes and a bottle of water) for those who like this type of tours 🤗

We learnt a lot about Slovakia's history and now we know quite few adegdotes about the town, Ester shares recomnendations where to eat, what is local food, what to buy as souvenir so all pratical stuff.
If you plan to visit Kosice, or you are in the area, the tour with Ester is a must have on your travel bucket list!
