This tour is a worthwhile one to do

Michael was very entertaining and knowledgeable. At 2.5 hours this was a long tour. We also had an older couple who had to pull out early as they could not handle the walking required so be prepared. There is a lot of information shared in this tour and probably too much to keep my attention at all times. Worth doing
