    It was nice but the traffic was insane so it was more like waiting for it to finish and get out

    I liked the start very much. Christmas hats, good help, pleasant atmosphere. Only after the start, tour guide kept talking continuously, did not keep his mouth shut. That resulted in us not listening at one point, and thus missed the most important information about the beautiful spots. I think a tour leader could be more concise in his narration and there are silences too.
