“My guide was amazing! really knowledgeable but wasn’t at all boring, he delivers all the facts but adds in some humour to really keep you engaged the entire 2 hours. The company were really good and let me join late so I am very grateful for that adjustment. The only thing I would say is the funicular is closed for the foreseeable so if that is something that you are really looking forward to be aware that it isn’t running. In my opinion it didn’t change the tour in the slightest!”
