This us a typical city tour. They have different vehicles. We rode in a ātrolley,ā which we liked. They also have vans & shuttle-type buses. We opted for the hop-on-hop-off tour.
Our driver was excellent.
Our tour guide was also excellent until she decided to inject her political opinion into her narration by commenting that āthere are people who want this country to turn socialistā and by embarrassing two female passengers when she shushed them because they were commenting to each other about a landmark we just passed while the tour guide was speaking. The ladies were not being loud, as we could not understand what they were saying to each other although we were seated nearby.
Too bad because this tour guide obviously knows the local history and landmarks and speaks very well.
My caveat:
We got off this bus where we wanted to walk and later got on another bus. That one had a driver who was also the tour guide.
Not pleasant at all. We got off at the next stop.
We hope the other tour guide keeps her political views to herself and learns when to take control and when to let her guests enjoy the experience. She would then definitely rate 5+, in my opinion.
So, decide what vehicle you want to ride on and whether it has a separate guide or just the driver.
I would opt for a separate guide.
Except for the minuses I described above, I would have given this tour five stars.

We are glad to hear you enjoyed the tour, for the most part. We will be sure to let all guides know to keep political issues to themselves. Thank you for joining us for a tour, and we hope you'll be back to see us again.
