Must do - We made the tour with Martin who is an exceptional guide. Unlimited knowledge and culture. Everything is very well explained, located in time and with reminders to never be lost and fully enjoy the information. He has many anecdotes that complement his stories. He is of course very kind and attentive to make the whole group feel good.
The visit itself is perfect, neither too long nor too short. It shows us the most important places in the city. We recommend it to all, young and old, rather at the beginning of the stay.
