A perfect afternoon!!! - This walk was low impact, but took us all over the city. We went at 4:30 and the timing was perfect! The crowds were gone and we were able to catch a magical sunset. Our tour guide was informative, and very engaging. You could tell that he truly enjoyed his job. Highly recommend!!!!
