Big group (60+ people). Felt more like mass tourism than a local showing you around. The guide was hard to understand. The group was really big and we were split into subgroups when crossing a traffic light. The guide did not wait for the subgroups after crossing a traffic light and started with the information when subgroups were still missing. Recommendations were hard to follow.
