“The tour was informative and our guide was enthusiastic. It would have been higher rated but this is not a three hour walking tour. It is a 2 hour tour with an included ticket for a 1 hour canal tour with a very large group by another operator at an insignificant cost relative to the total amount paid. We would not have taken the tour if it had been listed accurately as a 2 hour private walking tour with a large group canal boat ticket included.”
