Awesome Name Drop Tour in Princetown - It was A fantastic tour. I learned a lot of historical facts of Princeton University. I also saw Albert Einstein's house and learn some of the things that were given to him to entice him to come an 'work" for Princeton University. Fantastic trip! at the end of a hot and breezy day doing a 2 hour walk, we had a nice ice cream. There was some flamenco show and I saw some Chinese dragon getting ready to do a show, but unfortunately my family wanted to leave because they were tired.

fun and knowledge guide - This was a fast speed 2 hour of getting to know the history of Princeton. Very interesting and fun way of catching up with a city you don’t know. We can warmly recommend the trip. (A lot of US name dropping so you need to know a little US history before making this trip - maybe not for foreigners with no knowledge of US)
