Great tour, extremely...
Great tour, extremely knowledgeable guy. He took so many photos of us which are memories for a lifetime. Knows all the angles and the phone tricks. Expect 10k steps of walking but definitely worth it. A good breakfast would definitely help.

Best guide
The constant in this tour is, you will always see the same attractions. The variable which can make or break the experience is the tour guide. We had a fantastic one. Johny from Yo Hoo. Knowledgeable, personable, impressive English vocabulary and passionate about his job. Well done Johny. You made our day!

Tour good, but price not reasonable.
Tour was good, no question, but the same tour is available at getyourguide for almost half the price.
