My experience and that of our group of six, three couples was wonderful. I ordered the tickets on line and when arriving I was greeted by name from our lovely hostess Lily. We toured the city and walked about one mile reviewing the highlights and hearing the history. That day we tasted delicious chocolates and tasted some Wine-shine and wine . At the end of our tour they recommended a great spot for lunch and even met the owner, who took great care of our party. Schedule the tour and have some fun!

The tour guides were friendly and knowledgeable. It did go over the scheduled two hours, and since we had other commitments, we were not able to finish it with the group. Otherwise, we enjoyed and learned about Helen.
