Our guide was fun and knowledgeable! Duration was just right! Not too long and not too short. My boys really enjoyed it and so did I. Thank you so much for giving us a glimpse of what life was like back then. And the price was very reasonable which was much appreciated since so many other tours were quite a bit more. Thank you for making it possible for me to do something nice for my boys. As a single mother who can’t always afford the more expensive excursions, this tour was really very special.
