Excellent and entertaining and a little creepy - Fun and personable guide, entertaining stories, great fore-shadowing. This was way better than the walking tour we took of Victoria. We were also turned on to a great local poet and when we mentioned taking a roadtrip, he turned us on to some great cities up north. The other attendees were fun and funny from all over, so it was just a great all around experience and a great way to see a central part of the city.
