Fantastic tour is short on time.

Published on Nov, 2024

Excellent tour if short on time. The small group was manageable. The tour gives a quick break around lunch time. You have to be able to walk up and down stairs. It is a walking tour with hills and rough terrain at the Aerial Cable car.

Great overall informative tour
