Great tour!! - Wonderful tour! It was the beginning of our family vacation (ages 13,18,18,51&54) and we all loved it! Sascha was a great tour guide and it was obvious that he loves his city! Highly recommend!

We also went to the virtual experience which was interesting. I also liked the street musicians. - Since we had some old folks in our group, we did a hop on hop off tour. That was interesting. But the main thrust of our visit was the cathedral which was amazing and stunning. Don't miss that.

- Sasha was wonderful! He was so knowledgeable, kind and entertaining. We got to learn so very much more than we ever would have on our own. His communication before our meeting was timely and specific, leaving us with nothing to wonder. Amazingly, he found us in the crowd like he had met us before! We could not have had a better experience.

A great experience with a fun and knowledgeable guide. - A great tour, very well organised from helpful info on how to find the guide at the start, all the way through to final recommendations for places for ice cream at the end. Sascha was a very knowledgeable guide and also made the tour fun / interesting - quite a challenge in the 32C heat as we baked in the sun! The tour was a good duration (just under 2 hours) and visited a nice variety of interesting sites at a relaxed pace, with time for questions. All of us, from knowledgeable adults to cynical teenagers, enjoyed ourselves and learnt a lot. Thank you Sascha!

Directions not clear - Could not find the meeting place! Wandered around looking for the guide forever and somehow missed them. 2 stars since maybe I misunderstood the directions? There were descriptors and an address, none of which pulled up on maps. Gorgeous area though.
