“I would highly recommend the tour and their guides. I somehow booked the tour for the wrong day of the week (it might be the software changes the date if less than 24 hours before the tour...so triple check!). Our guide took a picture of my phone receipt and (since she had room) took us along and took care of the issue. If you want to understand the history and appreciate the stories about what you see, you will want a guide!”
