I had a walking tour on 10/07/2017 and it was an amazing experience. Not only was the tour productive with historical facts but with the personal experiences of our guide, the story felt like a beautiful fairy tale at the end of the tour. Our guide, Seth, was a man with great pride in his town and the job, we could tell that he did great research, informative, and was willing to give more information to tourists who were willing to listen and interested. I had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend the tour. :
