Informative and fun trip

A thoroughly enjoyable trip. We were met on the quayside a short distance from our cruise ship. Our guide Ana was very interesting and enjoyable with lots of humorous comments thrown in. She was very knowledgeable about the city and gave us lots of interesting facts on the way round.

It was okay

We traveled with my small kids and I honestly don’t think it was that worth it. The guide was good and she made the best of it. But i wouldn’t recommend if it’s a family with small kids. It isn’t that interesting for them except the part where it goes into water.

Go! Go! Go!

What a fabulous tour made all the better because of our guide, "Fa Fa", was hilarious and kept us altogether, albeit we were a mixed age and ability group from around the world. He was so inclusive, warm and generous! Ugo was our captain and tried to ensure that we didn't drown in the river!
Highly recommended!
