    One slight "but": in the middle of the winter season it was cold when we stopped outdoors, so it helps to wear a coat. Other than that, very positive experience.

    We arrived at the meeting point on time and it started without delay. Good pace, friendly guide. To repeat.

    As an architecture buff I was delighted to see the 1895 town hall and other classical buildings. I think the tour conveyed this very well.

    Everything went smoothly. But be warned: at the end the vehicle was waiting for everyone to be ready, so don't be late.
