Great tour! A bus was on time to pick us up from our hotel and drove us to each destination. Noble was our tour guide and he not only provided information on each attraction, but was also able to answer any questions we had (we had a lot!). I’ve visited these places before without a guide, but learning the history made all the difference. I would definitely recommend this tour.
