Informative city tour - Very informative city tour for a first approach to discover the city when you arrive or in a short city break. The driver was very friendly and gave a lot of informations about the city and its history Pity that we did not do several stops (3/4) to take pictures for exemple colonial houses in Queen Street or at the cemetery or at historic churches.
