This tour was led by a true guide who shared her knowledge with our small group in a really friendly and helpful way. She took us into any shop or building that caught our interest while staying with the script on the food stops and tour through the old town. One tip- tell your cab driver that you are going to the old fortress entrance. If not he will drop you far short of your meet up and b.s. you that he can’t drive to that spot. It’s a common trick they pull.

Lovely Morning very informative guide Miarti very helpful and friendly would thoroughly recommend going on this experience food delicious but don’t have breakfast before you go on trip
