Weites Themenfeld abgegriffen... aber man könnte das ganze auch spannender rüberbringen. Unser ganzer Trupp war enttäuscht von unserem Führer.

The information and stories were completely incoherent and some didn't even fit together. Legends and myths only came up in bullet points, it was more of a historical city tour with moderately interesting information.
