Evening Tour

Deborah_L, Feb 2026

This is a great tour to walk in the evening. Our guide included so many interesting facts and stories. Great way to familiarize yourself with the area.

Pass on this tour and find another

Michael_S, Sep 2023

The presentation was quite disappointing as the presenter most of the time was not speaking very loudly and was continually turning away from the group and we couldn’t hear her at all. This should also be called a highlight tour as most of the interesting things we did not see because there was a charge for it. I would pass on this tour.

Pas mal

charlotte_v, May 2024

La visite est pas mal mais la guide ne parlait pas assez fort et pas très intéressante c’est dommage car le tour du centre historique vaut vraiment le coup
