Lovely bike tour - Our guide had a very good knowledge about the city and it's history. And the bike tour was very interesting as we crossed lots of streets and it was very busy with people. Obstacle course but fun. Will do it again ☺️

Difficult to hear/follow the guide - 3 hours seems too long for this, furthermore it was very difficult to hear the guide. I would avoid this trip.
