“Our guide Kenneth was fantastic. He brought us to 3 different bars (plus a bonus market to get a "walking beer" because we told him that drinking on the street where we are from is illegal and he felt we needed to have a new experience.

The guide showed up on time, but not a minute early, wearing jeans and a navy jacket. It was one of the worse tours I have ever been on. There were 25 people. You couldn't hear him and his presentation was not good.”
