Nice guide but total tour too short at 7 hours

Kathy_H, Feb 2025
It was nice and the tour guide was intelligent and knowledgeable. But the descriptive locations on viator were not accurate. We did not go to the hippodrome and the total 7 hours seemed less than described. The places visited were great.

Worth the money

Kateri_K, Jul 2022
Great tour…in a day! Company will do a hotel pickup/drop off and you are driven around, from tourist site to tourist site, in a comfortable and air conditioned bus. Lunch was super with choices for vegans. Tour directors accommodate multiple languages. Well worth every penny!
