What to expect

As you walk, the guide reads your group's energy and interests, adjusting what you focus on—whether that's architectural details, specific historical periods, local stories or family connections to the city. You'll see main attractions and also venture into quieter neighbourhoods most tour groups skip. The guide fields questions and responds to what genuinely interests you rather than following a script.

Good to know
This suits anyone who finds standard group tours too rigid or wants a guide who can go deeper on topics that matter to them. Families benefit from flexibility—prams and strollers work, and kids can set the pace. Moderate fitness is needed (it's a walking tour on city streets); the area is hilly in places. Tours run regardless of weather, so bring appropriate clothing. Entrance fees and food aren't included. The tour price is per group, not per person, making it better value for couples or families than individual bookings. Contact the operator directly if you want a shorter or longer tour, or have specific requests.
