We chose the option without transportation because we wanted to experience the local public transit system; it was very easy to get there. The tour is very interesting, and the audio guide is quite useful. I’d recommend setting aside about 4 hours to complete the entire tour, since we underestimated the time needed and weren’t able to finish it. Highly recommended!!
