Take the tour and walk the streets with fascinating stories told by a trusted, local guide.

Tour route

Each participant will receive a set of a tour guide system receiver and earphones so that you will be able to clearly hear the guide, who will speak through a transmitter with a microphone attached to her. This is NOT an automatic translation machine. The guide will speak in English and participants will hear the guide's explanations in English through the guide system.
