Fantastic company - Excellent tour, with a first class driver who was very helpful - I wasa solo traveller with disabilities, but he helped me see everything that I wanted to see. I actually did a few trips with this company and can't recommend them highly enough. On each occasion (the city tour, a shopping trip, and a tour to the ancient monasteries of St Paul and St Anthony) the drivers were prompt, professional, helpful and good company.

Impression of the city - We did the city tour with 2 daughters aged 11 and 14. The aim is to see the highlights of the city. We visited the harbour, the mosque and the cathedral. We got an impression of the city and the guide was ok. A bit let down but ok. The city is in no way comparable to a European city, but do you really need to do this? Not really, visit the mosque and you have seen the most important thing.
