Your guide review
Our guide was great! She provided so much interesting information and kept everyone’s attention. It was such a pleasure to have her as our tour guide.
Speaker slowly and distinctly, and don’t shout.
Our tour guide talked SO fast that we only understood about half of what he said. We had a group of 12. Everyone agreed. Hard to catch what he was saying. He would say “over there is…..” but we did no know where to look. Right, left, in front??? Speaker was loud and sometimes he shouted. Another bus went by and lady guide was speaking slow and distinct and we heard every word she was saying. Too bad. Cool town, would have liked to learn more about it.
Long waits on Saturday. Not alot to see
Long wait for first bus on Saturday afternoon. Apparently only one pickup point. Buses would arrive and a few people would get off while a long line waited. Finally got on. Saw folks waiting to hop on at later stops but insuffic space. Traffic was a key delay. Can't see much from street vantage... unlike some other cities.
Great knowledgeable,...
Great knowledgeable, funny, pleasant, affordable. Clean, a lot of places to see. Would love to ride again.
Too fast
Driver/guide was good. A lot of information for a drive by. Needed to take the get off to get it all. Where some places were down a small road you couldn’t pick out the house before it was out of sight
