You get much closer to the sites than any bus and you see more in 3 hours than you can walking. It’s safe and the tour guide has so much passion for teaching us all about his city. Don’t do the bus this is a thousand times better. Plus as we drive by everyone smiles and waves at us. It’s like being in a parade!”
