MohammedHakim74, Oct 2019

It was a nice tour and we saw the city through the eyes of a local. Anja was kind and had a very good sense of humor. The only thing was that bothered me was that we booked 2 hours and she only spent an hour and a half with us. It's worth mentioning that we were 5 minutes late due to a train delay, but nevertheless she gave us 25 minutes less than she should have. We were surprised and disappointed. Also i would like to add that we have booked this tour tour with viator and everytime we were directed to this company based in India. We were surprised but then we found out that they only use local guides. They were really professional and answered every e-mail right away. They even adjusted the meeting point when we asked. Before every tour they would send us a reminder along with pictures of the meeting point. And they did a great job. We were really impressed.
