A little taste of the Gothic Quarter by foot and amazing view of the city by bus and cable car. - Sara was an amazing guide! We arrived a few minutes late, but the staff kindly caught us right up with the group just steps away. The tour office is inside the bus terminal itself, so find any entrance and head to platform 19 area inside the building. Tour was awesome! Sara keep everyone together and made sure those who needed a little extra time were accounted for and had a headstart on the group when necessary. Highly recommend this tour to see highlights.
