We really enjoyed our trip, it was such a unique experience to see all the major monuments and attractions at night. Our guide was Kate, very knowledgeable and attentive, made the trip a great learning opportunity. The bus driver, John, was very friendly and we had a smooth trip. Bus was clean and comfortable, there is a little bathroom on it in the back, as well. We took our trip in the first week of November, weather was warm at 7.30, but got quite a bit cooler by 10.30 pm, when we finished, so dress accordingly. There is still plenty of public transportation at that time of the night, so getting home wasn’t a problem. It’s not too tiring, I am a heart patient and could do it easily, there were several elderly passengers and a few with walking sticks, everyone managed well. Some of the sights have a slight slope around and up to them, some have stairs, sometimes a lot, but you still get the full experience even if you don’t go all the way up close. Overall it was very doable even for a person with some mobility issues. We had a great time and highly recommend this trip to anyone!
