A secret gem of a tour! - Our tour guide, Roberta, was excellent! She was very knowledgeable about the history of the town and seemed passionate to share her knowledge. We stopped for coffee, then a fried seafood treat in the market, and then a delicious lunch accompanied by a nice glass of wine. Fantastic!

We highly recommend this tour - Roberta was a phenomenal tour guide of this beautiful, quaint city. It was lovely to avoid the crowds (5 ships were in port, but most people stupidly avoid the town). It is an easy transfer from the port to the transportation center and then you have a 2-3 hour tour with lots of history, a break for coffee, some food near the open market and fish market and a nice lunch with a class of wine to finish the tour. She is a wonderful tour guide with passion for her town and its history. Way better than any tour we have been on so far on our Viking cruise.
