Walking + Dungeon tour

You should book tour the provost before the dungeon, and the tour would make sense. Love the tour for the historical haunted stories while walking to the dungeon. tour guide, Jack, was awesome and very detailed and always kept your attention. The tour company takes your safety seriously while crossing streets.
